  • See, Process, Perform: Dr. Berne’s Functional Techniques for Optimal Vision
    2025/02/27
    For even more from Dr. Sam, check out his new exclusive membership where you get access to my content and resources, new information, articles, videos, webinars: https://drsambernesmembership.com/ Please check out Dr. Berne's Practitioner's Training Program: https://www.drsamberne.com/practitioners-training/ Keywords astronaut training, sensory integration, visual skills, functional vision, visual tracking, binocular vision, cognitive skills, visual memory Summary In this conversation, Sam Berne discusses various techniques and methods used in occupational therapy, particularly focusing on astronaut training and its components, including vestibular activation, ocular motor skills, and auditory processing. He emphasizes the importance of visual skills in functional vision, including visual tracking, accommodation, and binocular vision, and how these skills are essential for reading and spatial awareness. The conversation also covers cognitive skills such as visual memory, form perception, and spatial orientation, highlighting their significance in learning and everyday activities. Takeaways Astronaut training incorporates sensory motor integration techniques. Vestibular activation is crucial for spatial awareness. Visual tracking is essential for reading and learning. Binocular vision enhances depth perception and spatial IQ. Visual accommodation is important in sports and daily activities. The cover test helps assess visual coordination. Visual memory plays a key role in learning processes. Form perception is vital for recognizing objects in different contexts. Spatial orientation aids in understanding relationships in space. Visual closure is important for problem-solving and comprehension. Sound Bites "It's a wonderful sensory motor integration." "Visual tracking is so important with reading." "Binocular vision is super important." "The cover test is a way to do this." "Visual memory is essential for learning." Chapters 00:00 Understanding Astronaut Training Techniques 05:53 Exploring Visual Skills and Functional Vision 11:49 Enhancing Visual Tracking and Accommodation 18:10 The Importance of Binocular Vision 24:06 Cognitive Skills and Visual Memory Sam Berne (00:00.236) All right. So in the astronaut training, this is an occupational therapy technique where they're working with sensory motor integration and there's three components. There's the vestibular activation. So that's where when you rotate them around you're stimulating that inner ear number two, it's ocular motor meaning it's visual. So it's eye tracking and gaze stabilization. So getting me to be able to focus and hold my gaze that improves my visual motor integration like hand-eye coordination or copying from the board stuff like that. And then the third component and the astronaut training is auditory processing integration. So you can use sound and rhythm to help the brain process spatial awareness. So I find I like to do this with every kid, but especially with autism, developmental delays, autism spectrum, Asperger's, brain injury, people with dizziness, vertigo, balance. So what you're doing is either using a rotating board or you can use a chair, something you can spin and you're monitoring the direction speed and duration. To over stimulate. some of these kids if you try to do too much of the astronaut training it over stimulates them. Now you can use a pen light or moving objects or visual tracking tools and then also they're listening something sometimes you can pair it with you know, by by urinal beats or you know some like in here. We use the so cord. Now, the reason why we call it astronaut training is because in NASA and astronaut training protocols, they would work a lot with the vestibular system, especially in different gravity environments. So just as astronauts have to adapt to movements in space individuals and people with sensory challenges. Sam Berne (02:23.085)

Welcome to the podcast today. It's great to be here. So we're going to talk a bit about the eye-limb connection how to drain and detox clear eyesight and vision. So the one thing I want to say to start off with is that you know, for most of us we spend our day on digital devices and I don't know how many listeners out there followers. have things like puffy eyes strain redness and you're concerned because you're staring at a screen all day. Well in this podcast, what I want to do is I want to give you some exercises. Just a very simple approach on how to boost your eye lymph body connection because you see the eyes don't have a direct lymphatic system and so they rely on movement. The eyes rely on movement hydration and proper circulation to get rid of inflammation and oxidative stress. So if you have any of those things like blurry vision puffy eyes, then stay tuned. So let's talk a little bit about the lymph and since the eyes have no direct lymphatic connection. They do rely on hydration and movement and the eyelids are key player in this because they house the glands that produce the tears that keep our eyes from getting dry. So it's very easy to get inflammation. In fact, a lot of systemic inflammation can lead to eye brain inflammation. Obviously what we eat gluten, dairy and sugar. our big factors, but also how we stare at our screen actually locks down our lymphatic function and this can cause these symptoms that I've spoken about. So the role of eye massage and I'll talk a little bit of what I mean by eye massage. I'm also going to bring in what we call the Vegas nerve because the Vegas nerve is very important.

Keywords to the podcast today: myopia, eye health, computer use, prescription lenses, vision improvement, blue light protection, eye fatigue, relaxation, peripheral vision, eye doctor Summary In this episode, Dr. Sam Berne discusses the implications of myopia, particularly in relation to computer use. He emphasizes the importance of having the correct prescription for computer work to avoid worsening eye conditions. Dr. Berne suggests that individuals should request a second prescription tailored for computer use, which can help reduce eye strain and improve comfort. He also highlights the benefits of using blue light protection lenses and the importance of taking breaks from lenses to promote eye health. Takeaways • Myopia means seeing well up close but struggling with distance. • Using a distance prescription for computer work can worsen myopia. • Request a second prescription specifically for computer use. • Comfort and clarity are both crucial when choosing lenses. • A reduced prescription can help relax the eyes and improve peripheral vision. • Wearing a lower power lens can enhance eye health and circulation. • Taking breaks from lenses can reduce their reinforcing influence. • Blue light protection is essential for screen use. • Over time, a reduced prescription can become the new distance prescription. • Regular eye exams are important for maintaining eye health. Sound Bites • "This is a recipe for disaster." • "You have to know how far away your laptop is." • "Clarity is important, but comfort is just as important." Chapters 00:00Understanding Myopia and Its Implications 02:57The Importance of Correct Prescription for Computer Use Sam Berne (00:00.568) Hey everyone, welcome to the program today. I'm going to be giving some advice on how to reduce myopia. People ask me questions whether or not you can actually improve myopia. Well, of course you can. In fact, you can improve your vision at any age. Hope you enjoy the show. Here we go. You could do to be proactive is you can download. A Snellen acuity chart. It's free and print it out and put it somewhere 20 feet away. And that could be a measuring stick for you to see, you know, how close you are to passing the driver, the vision part of the driver's test. In most states, you need 2040 and so you don't need 2020. And 2020 means seeing a 1 third inch letter at 20 feet. So you're you're looking at a fairly sizable letter and as long as you can pass it with both eyes somewhere with a correction. There's no problem. And now I'm going to deconstruct this a little bit for you and it may or may not make sense. It may not resonate. But here's the pattern I see in you. Here's the pattern. Growing up, you began to tense your eyes. And when you tense your eyes, you give up the distance to keep your world close to you. That's the successful part of your seeing up close. Now what goes along with that tension sometimes is you feel Sam Berne (02:02.978) Like you have to defend yourself. Like you're on a constant alert. Yeah, yeah, looking for threats looking for threats. Now that mental energy, whether it's conscious or unconscious that you're putting into your eyes because your eyes are the bodyguards for you. They're like the advanced sentry, you know, that sits outside where you live and is watching. When's the next fire? Do I smell smoke? What's that siren? So your prescription in your eye is everywhere in your body. It's not just in the eye. So the cataracts, you're allegedly forming and I can give you what symptoms are. What a cataract is on a kind of a very deep level is ...

Welcome to the podcast. So today I'm going to bring you into a lecture I gave on functional anatomy and this is something we use in our practitioner training. So I thought I would include part of it in the podcast. So I hope you enjoy the show. Here we go. Why do we want to learn anatomy? Well, if you're going to be an expert in vision knowing the foundations of the major structures of the eye is very important. And one of the things I want to make a distinction about is structural anatomy. That means knowing the terms, you know, like this is the arm. This is the leg and you know, you can get into the more technical things that's called structural anatomy, but that is static and that's physical. What I have found is that when you look at the function of the eye, like how does it work?
