CNVR treatment team provides one-on-one therapy as indicated. This may
include: Optometry evaluation and treatment, Neuropsychological testing and

Recreation Therapy, treatment in the areas of activities of daily living ,
Orientation and Mobility, Manual Skills, Technology training as well as a
Family Training Program. If interested in the program, please contact the
