Dr. Monika Spokas, founder of Clarendon Vision Development Center in Westmont, IL, fell in love with pediatrics and vision therapy in optometry school. She understood that this, combined with her passion, gave her the key to make a positive impact on the trajectory of others’ lives. In her 20 years of serving Chicagoland, Dr. Spokas built a team of like-minded professionals looking to put the patient first.
“Our team loves what we do. It is our vocation. It is our passion. The opportunity to improve the lives of our patients and their families is the core of who we are.”
Is your child struggling with reading and learning? Reading, writing, spelling and even paying attention all depend on an effective visual system. Eye tracking problems are one of 40 visual skills that can cause learning problems. 20/20 eyesight is not an indicator of a fully functional visual system. Specialty lenses and vision therapy can enhance visual performance.
Problems with eye alignment (how your eyes work together as a team) and how your brain processes visual information can cause nausea, balance issues, dizziness while driving and more. Eye misalignment often causes binocular vision dysfunction which is treatable with the right specialty lenses or vision therapy plan.
If you’re experiencing post trauma symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, light-sensitivity, or coordination problems, find relief knowing that vision may be the root cause of these symptoms. Problems with eye misalignment and clarity of vision can be corrected with specialized micro-prismatic lenses and rehabilitative therapy that reduces or even eliminates these symptoms.
Blurry distance vision (aka nearsightedness) is a symptom of a sight threatening eye disease called myopia. While nearsightedness may be corrected with glasses or contacts, parents need to know that treatments are now available to slow myopia progression in children. These treatments are non-invasive, proven effective and kid friendly.

Concussions are serious injuries and about 90 percent of the time, people suffer from vision problems after sustaining one. A concussion is a mild form of traumatic brain injury that sometimes presents persistent symptoms. The vision impairment symptoms that persist are collectively called post-trauma vision syndrome (PTVS).
Generally, dizziness is not a problem to ignore. It is a symptom that can stem from many different health conditions, ranging from a cardiac or neurological issue to a vision or inner ear disorder. Depending on the root of the problem, people do not experience dizziness the same way. Usually, dizziness resulting from binocular vision dysfunction does not cause the feeling that the room is spinning. Instead, you may feel unbalanced, and a headache may accompany your dizziness. A comprehensive functional eye exam is necessary to determine whether you have BVD.
According to a survey by the American Optometric Association, about 25 percent of children in school have vision problems. These are staggering numbers because we know children learn most through observation. All these children have a poorer academic life than their counterparts.
