About Texas Vision Therapy
Symptoms and Treatments
Information Center
We collaborate with a range of healthcare providers who recognize the impact of the visual system on overall function and recovery. This includes pediatricians, neurologists, physical and vestibular therapists, psychologists, and other specialists managing patients with complex or unresolved symptoms. Our goal is to complement your care by identifying and treating visual system dysfunctions that may be contributing to your patient’s clinical presentation.
For Pediatricians
We work with children whose symptoms don’t fully resolve through traditional pathways—patients with reading struggles, attention concerns, headaches, or suspected ADHD where the underlying issue may be visual. Dr. Chelette specializes in brain-based visual rehabilitation, identifying and treating functional vision problems that interfere with learning and development. Through collaborative care, we help pediatric patients improve reading efficiency, reduce symptoms, and better engage in school and daily life.
For Neurologists
We partner with neurologists to support patients with persistent visual symptoms following concussion or neurological injury. Many individuals continue to experience headaches, dizziness, light sensitivity, and cognitive fatigue despite otherwise normal findings. Dr. Chelette focuses on neuro-optometric rehabilitation, addressing deficits in eye movement, visual processing, and visual-vestibular integration to help patients progress more fully in their recovery.
For Physical Therapists / Vestibular Therapists
We collaborate with PTs and vestibular specialists when patients plateau in rehabilitation due to unresolved visual system dysfunction. The visual system plays a critical role in balance, coordination, and spatial orientation. Dr. Chelette evaluates and treats eye tracking, focusing, and visual-vestibular integration issues that may be limiting progress, helping patients move forward more efficiently in their overall recovery.
For Psychologists, Counselors, and Therapists
We work with patients whose symptoms—such as anxiety, attention difficulties, or sensory overwhelm—may be exacerbated by underlying visual processing dysfunction. When the visual system is not functioning efficiently, it can increase cognitive load and reduce tolerance for reading, screens, and busy environments. Dr. Chelette provides neuro-optometric care that supports regulation of the visual-brain connection, often complementing therapeutic and behavioral interventions.

Many patients we see have symptoms that persist despite appropriate care in other areas. We commonly co-manage cases involving reading and learning difficulties, post-concussion symptoms, binocular vision dysfunction, chronic headaches, dizziness, and visual intolerance to screens or busy environments. By addressing the visual component, we often help unlock progress in patients who may otherwise feel stuck.

Consider referral when a patient’s symptoms are not fully explained or resolved, or when progress in treatment has plateaued. Common referral indicators include headaches with reading, difficulty concentrating, dizziness in visually stimulating environments, double vision, or ongoing symptoms after concussion. Patients with “normal” eye exams may still have functional vision deficits that require specialized evaluation.

Our care is centered on a brain-based model of vision, focusing on how the eyes and brain work together rather than eyesight alone. We assess eye movement, coordination, focusing, and visual processing, then design individualized treatment plans using vision therapy and, when appropriate, supportive lenses. This structured approach allows us to reduce symptoms, improve function, and support long-term outcomes.

Patients referred to our office undergo a comprehensive evaluation that goes beyond a standard eye exam, with a focus on functional and neurological aspects of vision. From there, we provide clear findings, a defined treatment plan, and consistent communication with your office when appropriate. Our goal is to ensure your patients feel understood, supported, and confident in their path forward.

Dr. Justin Chelette is the founder of Texas Vision Therapy and a specialist in vision therapy and brain-based visual rehabilitation for children and adults. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry (FAAO) and one of the few residency-trained optometrists specializing in vision therapy and visual rehabilitation in Texas.
His interest in vision therapy began at an early age after experiencing strabismus (eye misalignment) as a child. Through his own treatment with vision therapy, Dr. Chelette saw firsthand how improving the way the eyes and brain work together can dramatically change a person’s quality of life. That experience ultimately inspired him to pursue a career helping patients overcome complex visual problems.
Dr. Chelette has been recognized nationally for his work in vision therapy and visual rehabilitation, and he continues to educate both patients and healthcare professionals about the role of the visual system in learning, neurological recovery, and daily performance.
His background includes academic teaching, hospital-based clinical care, and advanced training in euro-visual disorders.
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Chelette is dedicated to educating the public and other healthcare professionals about brain-based vision care. Through speaking engagements, social media, and his podcast, he regularly discusses topics such as binocular vision dysfunction, reading difficulties, concussion recovery, and visual processing.

Your eyes may be healthy. The issue may be communication.
We identify how the brain is misprocessing visual input — not just whether the patient sees 20/20. What’s Assessed: eye tracking, convergence/divergence, binocular coordination, visual processing speed, and vestibular integration (if concussion-related)
We calm the system before we challenge it.
Reduce symptom intensity before intensive retraining for headaches, dizziness, motion sensitivity, visual overwhelm with tools such as precision lenses (if indicated), controlled visual demand, and foundational coordination work.
We retrain how your brain processes vision.
This is the core of vision therapy and it focuses on strengthening binocular coordination, improving tracking efficiency, building endurance, and increasing visual-cognitive integration so that reading becomes easier, symptoms decrease, and recovery accelerates.
We don’t stop when symptoms improve. We restore function.
Dr. Chelette transitions patients from clinical improvement to real-world performance. For example: classroom endurance, sports tracking, screen tolerance, driving confidence, cognitive stamina, etc.

What I admire most about specialty doctors, are how the core issues are identified and addressed.
Dr. Chelette instilled a sense of hope that is so undervalued by many medical professionals today. If you are considering going here for a consultation, know that you will be listened to and thoroughly assessed.
Prior to visiting this clinic, I had seen four different licensed opthamologists over the last four years for the same issue and they all provided a traditional anatomical approach providing a new prescription that did little more than block harmful blue light. Not one prior doctor recommended exercises or attempted to understand the origin of the issue without asking. If you are unsure of a consultation, let this review provide some positive encouragement at a chance to improve your quality of life. This is easily a 5 star service.

I had suffered from vertigo and other symptoms, since I was 10 years old. Over the years I have had an MRI & CT scans of my brain, taken medications and the list goes on and on. I am now 52 years old. I found Dr. Chelette a few weeks ago. In one session, he was able to figure out what was wrong with me. I had double vision this whole time. With the proper eyeglasses prescription that Dr. Chelette wrote, my life is now normal. No more vertigo and no more headaches! I can drive without fear. The biggest plus is Dr. Chelette didn't rush through the visit. He took the time to listen to me and diagnose my issue. I have so much confidence in Dr. Chelette that I am now taking my son for a visit because I believe he can help him.
— Martin A.
Dr. Chelette is amazing!!! He is great with kids that are struggling with visual issues. In fact, I was referred to him by a famous neuroscientist and author Susan Berry, which speaks volumes of his reputation. He has a depth of knowledge and understanding that is unique in the field. There are less than 2/3 optometrist who tackle these visual difficulties in Houston but he by far is the best. My son’s prescription has improved and we are hoping he can soon come out of his glasses!

We landed here when looking for a second consult, confirming the assessment we had from the first place. But the other place was far from Katy, had too busy a schedule, only offered therapy during business hours and recommended the elementary school kids come for sessions mid morning before they are too tired. All great things, but not practical at all, considering the sessions are weekly and easily run for up to 8-months.
Doc here was super attentive to parents concerns, invested in how his clinic is run, offered preemptively the accommodations I could ask of teaching conditions at school and didn’t hassle us over a few months when we were still making our decision. Once we opted in, weekly experience has been great, kid really enjoys their time here and even though medical insurance wasn’t gonna cover the treatment, the clinic accepted our FSA card. Looking forward to mid-treatment evaluation, earnestly.

We have a son that has been doing vision therapy here and we have seen DRAMATIC improvements. We’ve even caught him reading on his own. We are SO grateful for this. It’s already been a game changer for us.

I took my 3 year old daughter to see Dr Justin Chelette for her lazy eye and I learned more on our first visit than I did in a year of regular visits at our previous optometrist. My visit to Texas Vision Therapy was night and day different than what I’d experienced previously. We didn’t have to wait to see the Dr, we walked right in and he spent over an hour working with my toddler doing various exercises. Dr Chelette got on the ground with her to demonstrate some play based exercises we can do at home to help pull her eye out. I loved that anytime he said something about how this or that would help to pull my daughters eye muscles out I didn’t have to take his word for it, he physically showed me how her eye would move out. After being told by a previous optometrist that there is no exercises you can do to pull an eye out and then seeing that Not be true, I was sold. I’ll never go anywhere else for my daughter’s vision needs.

Dr. Chelette was introduced to me by a visit to my work where he gave a presentation. I asked him about my daughter and the fact that the nurse at her school needed an outside optometrist to test her because she couldn't. Mind you, my daughter is 6, non-verbal autistic and doesn't particularly like people in her space (I feel that kid). He reassured me that the tests he performs would test her vision and many other factors without making her feel anxious or agitated. I thought, "Sign me up, doc!" So I took her to see him and it was a great experience! He was very patient with her and took his time examining her. He also recommended different activities to do with her to strengthen different skill sets. If you have a child on the spectrum or they've had bad experiences with other optometrists, I highly recommend Dr. Chelette.

Everything about my experience was above expectation. I've never had someone do such a thorough and thoughtful examination of my vision before. I typically feel like I'm being rushed through appointments like this, but Dr Chelette was fantastic and took the time to make sure I understood everything. I highly recommend Texas Vision Therapy.

I had a head injury and went in for an evaluation as well as an eye exam and I can say Dr. Chelette is one of the most thorough doctors that I have ever met. He is extremely intelligent as he corrected my prescription lenses and gave me great exercises for a great recovery.
— Mark L.
I can't express in words how grateful I am. From the moment I reached out to this place for my daughter, who has Down Syndrome, to receive care, I felt a deep sense of understanding and empathy. The word 'inclusion' isn't just a concept for them; it's a practice ingrained in every aspect of their work. The dedication, kindness, and talent of their team are evident in every interaction. I finally found a place where my daughter is truly understood and supported. Everyone! has to visit this place; you won't regret it. Thank you for everything! Thank you Dr. Chelette! I appreciate your efforts to speak Spanish!
