She Tried Everything for Brain Fog. Vision Therapy Fixed It in a Week.

Marie Damasio spent 38 years struggling with chronic brain fog, fatigue, and reading difficulties that no therapy could fully resolve. In this conversation, she shares her experience going through a week-long Vision Performance Training™ intensive at MyVisionFirst with neuro-optometrist Dr. Bryce Appelbaum and the measurable results that followed.

For years, Marie was unable to read more than a page at a time, constantly losing her keys, and unknowingly stuck in a fight-or-flight stress response. Despite somatic therapy, emotional work, and physical health interventions, something was always missing. A comprehensive functional vision evaluation revealed that her eyes and brain weren’t working together and that was the root cause all along.

After five days of intensive Vision Performance Training™, Marie’s results speak for themselves:
✅ Reading 8 pages in one sitting without rereading a single line
✅ Reading speed increased from 144 to 166 words per minute
✅ 13 fewer eye movements and half the regressions per paragraph
✅ Depth perception improved from below adult norms to 100% accuracy
✅ Focusing stamina increased from below 20% to ~75–80% of age-appropriate norms
✅ Significant reduction in brain fog and chronic fatigue

If you’ve struggled with brain fog, attention issues, reading difficulties, or chronic fatigue and haven’t found answers — this episode is for you. Vision therapy and Vision Performance Training™ may be the missing piece.
