In this episode, Dr. Irena O’Brien and neurooptometrist Dr. Lisa Chow explore the difference between eyesight and vision, and why 20/20 vision is not the whole story, and how visual strain can quietly affect focus, regulation, and everyday functioning.In each episode of Neuroscience of Coaching, host Dr. Irena O’Brien explains the science-based insights behind a particular concept and interviews an expert to discuss how these apply in the real world. Just as she does in her professional programs, Irena “un-complicates” neuroscience and teaches practical, evidence-based tools and strategies that listeners can use in their coaching practices.“Eyesight is clarity. Vision is how well your brain is processing visual information.”  — Dr. Lisa ChowGuest Bio:Dr. Lisa Chow is a neuro-optometrist and founder of The Sight Doctor platform, where she helps people understand that vision is more than just seeing clearly; it is how the brain processes visual information to help us function, focus, perform, and navigate the world.A practicing clinician based in Ontario, Canada, Dr. Chow brings over 15 years of clinical experience and more than 30,000 patient visits to her work. Through her clinical practice, she works with patients experiencing concussion-related vision problems, visual dysfunction, eye teaming and focusing challenges, and other brain-based visual issues that can impact daily life, performance, learning, and recovery.She is passionate about translating complex neuroscience and vision concepts into practical insights that people can apply to modern life, including screen fatigue, mental clarity, cognitive endurance, stress regulation, and overall visual wellness.Dr. Chow's mission is to help people see vision differently: not just as eyesight, but as a key part of how we think, feel, learn, perform, and experience the world.Host Bio:Dr. Irena...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/OkRhxohT3r9F1IGONxxYMrSfPeWULpvDdhNwh58USV0/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xNGMy/MzA0NzI4YmI2OWIz/OTM3NGY0NWU3OWM5/ODk4YS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
