Joseph L. Shapiro OD, FCSO

Behavioral Optometrist and Optimist

What I Do

After 49 years of practice in New York City I am continuing my mission to educate and share innovative concepts and insights that challenge the old paradigm of the  “20/20 perfect vision” model of eye care.

My entire career has been dedicated to discovering natural therapeutic solutions for vision issues that integrate all aspects of the eye, mind, and body. 

What Is Vision Therapy?

Vision therapy is a personalized and fully customizable treatment program that will retrain, strengthen and improve your visual system to interpret visual input with increased accuracy and ease.

What Issues Does Vision Therapy Treat?

  • Eyestrain & Eye Fatigue
  • Lazy Eye (Amblyopia)
  • Crossed Eyes (Strabismus)
  • Depth Perception
  • Double Vision
  • Trouble Focusing
  • …and more.

Prior to his recent retirement, Dr. Shapiro made this video. The titles, subtitles, and music were added by Optometrists Network.

Natural Solutions for Eye Problems

What Are Some Natural Solutions for the Above Issues and Others Such as Anxiety, Difficulty Playing Sports, Brain Fog?

Other than a healthful diet, exercise, staying hydrated, getting adequate sleep, cleaning your eye lids, hot or cold compresses, wearing protective glasses, and taking recommended vitamins… light therapy, mirror exercises, behavioral vision therapy, and more with an optometrist who practices vision therapy.
