Amanda Zeller Manley, OD, FCOVD

Neuro-developmental Optometrist, Fellow of the College of Optometrists in Vision Development

Passion: That kids and adults don’t get roadblocked by their visual system. Helping kids and adults stop feeling stupid by improving their visual system, from eyeball to brain to body.

Why? Until becoming a patient at her optometry college’s vision therapy clinic, Dr. Zeller struggled to be a solid B-minus student.

After vision therapy, she was finally able to become the A student her parents had always expected. She also has had a few concussions that had visual consequences later improved through vision rehabilitation. Her personal experiences provide common ground with her patients and their own struggles.

Combined with over a thousand hours of specialty continuing education, sixteen years in the clinic have provided ample opportunity to meet patients where they are in order to provide a custom path to vision rehabilitation.
