Lecture Series on Hiatus
The VCDC lecture series will be on hiatus over the summer. We hope to bring you great speakers and information resuming in September. We are considering changing the schedule from Thursday nights. We would like your feedback, however: Are evenings or daytime best? Weekday or weekend? Please let us know what you think. Email DrZeller@VisionTherapyDC.com. Thank you! |

Help Us Spread the Word About Vision and Learning!
The College of Optometrists in Vision Development (COVD) is helping to educate the public about the link between vision and learning. At the VCDC, we are doing the same- Dr. Green and Dr. Zeller are available for free lectures
at schools, PTA meetings, and other venues to spread the word about the link between vision and learning.

Greetings!
Where has May gone? Memorial Day is in the rearview mirror, summer's around the corner, and the kids (and parents!) are dreaming of the beach instead of math homework. We would like to remind you, however, that summer can also be a time to work on the visual skills that are keeping kids struggling with schoolwork. Post-Memorial Day time spent doing vision therapy can pay big dividends come Labor Day. Prepare for the next grade now-- schedule your vision evaluation and vision therapy sessions today.  | | Vision and Learning (60 seconds) |
Our summer schedule is filling fast-- call today! 301-951-0320 |
