After finishing his bachelor's degree at Cornell University, Dr. Shlomovitz chose to complete his post doctorate degree at Illinois College of Optometry.  His studies there were from 1973 to 1978.  In those years and until today Illinois College of Optometry is considered to be the forerunner in behavioral optometry for children. The founding fathers; the clinicians and developmental researchers of behavioral optometry served as teachers and mentors to Dr. Shlomovitz in binocular vision and perceptual processing. 

Children that had cases of binocular muscle imbalance and perceptual difficulty were diagnosed, treated and documented in the clinic that was based in the university. Binocular muscle imbalance and perceptual difficulties have been proven to be major obstacles for a child who is learning to read. 

In 1973 Dr. Shlomovitz opened his first clinical practice with the intent of treating his patients at the highest optometric level; giving each patient his upmost personal attention.  The clinic specialized in all areas of developmental optometry; such as contact lens fitting, diagnosing diseases pertaining to the eyes and head, comprehensive eye refractions, as well as special visual equipment needed for the elderly.  Due to the clinics high level of of dedication to its patients, in a very short while it became a primary center for all pertaining to behavioral and developmental optometry. 

In 1991 after many years of dedicated work, Dr. Shlomovitz decided  to leave his successful practice and start over … Jerusalem, Israel. 

We at Eye Care Shlomovitz not only diagnose all visual binocular functions but also accommodative functioning, eye vergence ability, and binocular balance.  We also check many areas of visual perceptual skills such as form perception, auditory-visual integration, multitasking, and visual memory.
