None. We prefer to write it as one word (VisionHealth), but some people prefer two (Vision Health), some people really like it combined with a small "h" Visionhealth, which is the way we write Visionhealth on screen!

Visionhealth's aim is to become self perpetuating. It will move with the times and constantly strive to update it's existing titles (to keep them current and as useful as possible), while continually searching for new titles.

Our vision at Parrish Medical Center is: "Healing experiences for everyone all the time." Main Street PMC is one example of how we are realizing that vision. Through Main Street PMC, Parrish Medical Center hopes to make the experience seniors have in receiving the care they need loving, caring, efficient, and effective. It is a place where seniors and their families will feel confident that their health concerns are addressed and that their wishes are respected when decisions are made.

Visionhealth was created to provide much needed information to sufferers of incredibly widespread chronic conditions. The film director behind the Visionhealth series suffered from Asthma and was frustrated with the lack of readily accessible information and the conflicting opinions and approaches being propagated.

Additional excerpted writings from Patricia S. Lemer, M.Ed., NCC, Executive Director, Developmental Delay Registry Eyesight and vision are not synonymous. Eyesight is the sharpness of the image seen by the eye. Vision is the ability to focus on and comprehend that which is seen. Research has shown that while most children with special needs do not have eyesight problems, many have visual dysfunction.

During your annual eye health and vision examination we will evaluate the health and function of the following: (Common diseases are in parenthesis)

This depends on the plan. If this is important to you, you should check it out before you apply for an insurance plan. Many health plans cover only eye injuries. Some plans may cover regular eye examinations. Some plans may also provide a yearly benefit allowance for the purchase of eye glasses or contact lenses. Vision care, like dental care, is one of the benefits that some plans offer and others don't.

CIBA Vision offers three types of colored contact lenses - lenses that change, enhance or illuminate eye color. For people with dark eyes who want to change their eye color, CIBA Vision offers lenses such as FreshLook Colorblends?, which utilize a unique 3-in-1 technology that blends three colors into one to create the subtle, natural depth of beautiful eyes. FreshLook Colors is also available as a single color dot-matrix print pattern for a more noticeable eye color change.

RK and LASIK Laser Vision Correction are procedures to correct refractive error by reshaping the cornea to allow light rays to properly focus on the retina. RK requires the use of a diamond blade to create radial incisions on the surface of the cornea. With LASIK, Dr. Berkeley, Dr. Caplan, and Dr. McQueen reshape the cornea using cool waves of ultraviolet light that gently sculpt away nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism with microscopic precision using the VISX Star Excimer Laser.

The primary difference between the two generations is the photocathode. Generation 2 uses a multi alkali photocathode while Generation 3 uses gallium Arsenide. Gallium Arsenide provides a significant increase in photoresponse and tube life. Other differences in performance will be image tube resolution, tube gain and signal to noise ratio. Therefore Generation 3 offers greater clarity but is generally more expensive than Generation 2.

Vision Spaceport was a joint research project conducted from 1998-2001 to explore the relationships between space transportation architectures and operations costs. The project produced a prototype software model called the "Strategic Planning Tool" that captured and automated these relationships for analysis by the research team. Two generations of the tool were produced. See www.VisionSpaceport.org for more information (this web site may be discontinued in 2003).

Eyesight” is the physical process of focusing light within our eyes, whereas “vision” involves our ability to understand and respond to what is seen. Eyesight is limited to the ability to see, generally tested at a distance of 20 feet. Vision, however, is a dynamic process that involves the combined skills of aiming, tracking, focusing and teaming, along with a host of other mental, emotional and neurological processes.

One way of looking at it is...if corrective lenses cannot provide 20/40 sight in at least one eye, you may have limited vision. And keep in mind that those who are legally blind--who test 20/200 or less in the better eye after the best correction, or have a field defect in which the widest diameter of the visual field is no greater that 20 degrees--also have limited vision. We like to think that being visually impaired means you are "A Little Bit Blind.

Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs) have a master’s degree and at least two years of training to treat a wide variety of mental health problems. A Ph.D. or Psy.D. has a doctorate in psychology, treats a wide range of mental health problems and may do diagnostic testing. A psychiatrist (M.D.) is a medical doctor who specializes in psychiatry and does mainly medication evaluations, as well as some psychotherapy.

Yes. All Illinois health insurers use height/weight tables to make risk determinations. People with "non-standard" height/weight ratios may be charged higher rates or refused coverage. These height/weight standards vary from health insurer to health insurer.

Visionhealth is in the process of becoming a registered charity in its own right. A portion from every sale, from every Visionhealth disc is collected in and twice a year Visionhealth makes a donation to an appropriate charity, concerned with researching and promoting efficacious treatments for the conditions covered.

we are sending out double disc sets, and deal with numerous customers daily, customer service is our priority. Recorded delivery lets us track customer orders quickly and easily. This way when you order a Visionhealth dvd you know when it is coming. As importantly, if your disc gets lost, the process of dispatching a replacement is much easier.

the time of filming (and to our knowledge to this day!) all Visionhealth experts are registered with either the British Complementary Medical Association (BCMA) or the British Medical Association (BMA).

Absolutely, we welcome suggestions for future titles and of course all feedback on any aspect of the Visionhealth series. We are committed to making these the best audio visual resource for chronic sufferers.

Yes, as long as these are deductible under the current rules. For example, cosmetic procedures, like cosmetic dentistry, would not be considered qualified medical expenses.

No, not like this one! VisionCare Plan covers your eyecare needs on a paid-in-full basis. (Most health/dental plans only offer a discount vision plan.)

The major difference with the new CIPS vision and the existing CIPS vision is that the new CIPS vision clearly focuses the organization on promoting professionalism in informatics, whereas in the past the various parts of CIPS were left to decide for themselves what it means to be the "voice and champion of the professional" or "providing leadership in information systems and technologies." CIPS now has a document that sets out in much more specific terms what it means to achieve its vision.

No difference! Both of these fractions denote perfect sight. 20/20 is the imperial version measured in feet whilst 6/6 is the metric equivalent in metres.

Yes, there is a tremendous difference. Congenitally blind children must learn adaptive skills from the earliest age possible that will assist them educationally, socially and in daily living skills. Newly blinded adults need the same adaptive skills but the methods vary considerably since they are drawing from a lifetime of visual experiences. The person who becomes blind experiences blindness as a traumatic loss wherein an entire life style must be adjusted.

Supposedly, the European Vision:M models have different firmware, to limit the maximum volume, to protect peoples' hearing. The American (and other?) versions supposedly do not have this limitation.

Vision Training seeks to restore your natural clear vision by way of training exercises. The assumption is that you already have good eyesight. You were, most probably, born with good eyesight. More than 98% of all children under the age of 6 have great eyesight. Vision training seeks to restore your natural ability to see. This is accomplished through a series of exercises that relax the eyes and let go of any tension. Think of Vision Training as “Tai Chi ” for the eyes.

Most patients with severe vision loss from macular degeneration can get around, dress themselves, and prepare their food. Some patients (primarily those with the "wet" type) can have more severe vision loss.

Dry AMD. If you have dry AMD, you should have your eyes examined through dilated pupils at least once a year. This will allow your eye care professional to monitor your condition and check for other eye diseases as well. You should also obtain an Amsler grid from an eye care professional to use at home. This will provide you with a quick and inexpensive test to evaluate your vision each day for signs of wet AMD. It works best for people who still have good central vision.
