Treating Vision Disorders Through Integrative Eyecare
Eye, Brain, Body Connection
As the eyes are part of the brain, vision is inherently a neurological process.
Due to the body’s intimate connections, neurology and health oftentimes affect visual skills, as shown repeatedly in research. Visual skills, beyond clear eyesight, can only be evaluated properly through a binocular vision exam.

Dr. Wynn Nguyen Tran, OD, FAAO, FOVDR
Owner
Dr. Wynn Nguyen Tran is the owner of well-respected practices, providing personalized eye care in Walnut Creek and Corte Madera. Her fascination with the connection between vision and neurology led her to complete a postdoctoral residency in neuro-optometric rehabilitation, developmental optometry, and vision therapy. She previously served as an assistant clinical professor at UC Berkeley School of Optometry’s Binocular Vision Clinic and worked in various private practices. While she enjoyed teaching, Dr. Tran was drawn to private practice to treat patients directly through her integrative model. As a former yoga instructor, she appreciates the significance of mind-body wellness in a conscious approach to eye care. A properly functioning, balanced visual system with increased attention and awareness have powerful effects on learning, behavior, and overall well-being.
Dr. Tran offers a holistic, healing, and effective approach that may include vision exercises and rehabilitation.
Dr. Tran is a fellow of the American Academy of Optometry (FAAO) and the Optometric Vision Development & Rehabilitation (FOVDR, formerly FCOVD), a member of the Alameda Contra Costa County Optometric Society (ACCCOS) and a committee member for the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association (NORA).
