WHO I AM I am an Optometrist specialized in Visual Training with a Master's in Neuro-Visual Postural Clinic. Twenty years of study and practice have allowed me to become a professional in the visual system. Through my examinations with postural attention, I conduct comparison tests that enable me to prescribe more comfortable corrections and determine whether discomfort arises from visual or other origins. Additionally, with my visual training program, I aid in the rebalancing and agility of your eyes. The optometric visual analysis is conducted by an optometrist who investigates how the eyes function from a functional perspective. Functionally, this refers to the quality of work that the eyes and the brain undertake during visual processing, as well as how information coming from the eyes is transmitted to the central nervous system to ensure comfortable, clear, and singular vision with a stable perception of one's body in space. It's not just about the quantity of vision the visual system can achieve, but rather the quality and coordination the system must have to carry out visual tasks with less energy expenditure, avoiding the development of disturbing symptoms and, above all, preventing visual and visuo-postural alterations. During an optometric visual analysis, the following aspects are evaluated: • Visual dominance and quantity, both near and far • Accommodative flexibility and range (the lens' ability to focus) • Vergence flexibility and range (convergence and divergence fusion) • Fusion abilities (maintaining clear and singular vision) in static and dynamic contexts • Disassociated bi-ocular alignment, both static and dynamic • Quality of visual pursuit movements • Quality of saccadic movements (jerky movements typical during reading), even with crowded targets Visual Training is a specific training for the visual system that helps us to see and process stimuli better through exercises that teach us to improve our skills. It intervenes at the functional level, identifying areas for improvement and training visual abilities following an ophthalmological evaluation. At my Optometric Center in Melide, we search for the cause of your eye problems in order to work specifically on their manifestation. Vision is strongly integrated with posture and body movement. Eye movements react to stimuli, coordinating not only movement and balance but also enabling the first fundamental cognitive hypotheses in our daily lives. To ensure subjectivity in the improvement of abilities, I have introduced the "Jet Program," which, through protocols and reports, guarantees and documents the achieved improvements. Thanks to an optometric examination with visual postural attention, a performance profile analysis conducted with the Jet Program, and a personalized and targeted exercise protocol, my clients have learned to better manage fatigue, concentration, and prevent visual alterations. • Professionals who spend long hours in front of a computer now find it easier to read, study, and memorize. • Many children and teenagers achieve better reading and learning abilities. • Significant improvements are also seen in their sports performance. • Older users adapt to and tolerate progressive lenses better, exhibiting much greater stability in their balance and perception of their body in the surrounding space. Today, more than ever, our eyes need movement and flexibility—let's help them feel better!

In der Luzerner Höhenklinik in Crans-Montana wurde ich sehr höflich empfangen, charmant in mein Zimmer begleitet und dann aufgeklärt was auf mich wartet. Nach einer sehr professionellen Untersuchung hatte ich noch etwas Zeit für einen Spaziergang in der guten Alpenluft. Die erste Nacht war schwierig mit all den Sonden am Kopf und am Körper. Dies ist aber ausserordentlich hilfreich eine genau Diagnose zu stellen. Ich muss sagen, nach all den Gadgets die ich im Lauf der Jahre ausprobiert hab, ist dies eine andere Dimension. Seither habe ich ein Beatmungs-gerät. Alles läuft PRIMA. Dieses Ding hat mein Leben positiv verändert. Auch die Beratung durch Dr. med. Jean-Marie Schnyder und sein Team war sehr professionell, aufschlussreich und doch verständlich. Ich bekam die Hilfe, die ich seit Jahren benötige und kann dieses Schlaflabor in der Luzerner Höhenklinik allen Schnarchenden bestens empfehlen. An dieser Stelle herzlichen Dank an das gesamte Team um Dr. Schnyder. Tolle Leistung.
