To provide vision excellence, once we find 20/20 eye sight and disease free eyes (where most other doctors stop) we are just getting started. We determine your vision fitness - how you use your eyes. That allows us to find hidden vision conditions that interfere with your performance and life such as school, work, and recreation. Then through vision therapy and sometimes with only lens therapy we are able to treat visually related learning problems, enhance athletic skills, prevent nearsightedness, treat amblyopia, and strabismus (crossed eyes or out-turned eyes), alleviate eyestrain, enhance job performance, head off job burn-out, and make executives more efficient. Go to Vision Therapy, then to success Stories to see how vision therapy was related to the super Bowl. |
Like other optometrists in Lodi and the surrounding area, we detect and prevent diseases of the eye, and do treat some diseases. Yet, as Dr Henshaw realizes vision excellence, especially in vision therapy, requires much time and dedication he realizes the same is true for disease treatment excellence. Thus, Dr. Henshaw leaves some disease treatment only to colleagues who practice eye disease excellence who fortunately are in Lodi. He also closely guides and works with the best surgeon in the area also in Lodi for those who require cataract surgery.
Dr. Henshaw provides contact lens services and offers an excellent selection of eyeglass frames. The lost art of adjusting glasses is not lost in Dr. Henshaw's office, nor is the correct verification of laboratory orders before the glasses are presented to you. He carefully explains the pros and cons of surgical (LASIK) vision enhancement and oversees his patients with the best surgeon in the area.

Just Add Seasoning
Dr. Henshaw has practiced optometry over 40 years. The first five years were in the Army at Walter Reed Hospital during the Vietnam War. Although he found military or any institutional optometry was not for him, he participated in a local study group of developmental optometrists, including Dr. Bob Kraskin who with vision therapy helped then President Johnson's daughter Lucy who straggled with a visually related learning problem. That began his understanding of optometry that can make a difference, not just prescribe stronger and stronger glasses year after year. Due to his participation in the study group he became a Fellow in the College of Optometrists in Vision Development.They are doctors who specialize in vision therapy.
After leaving the Army and establishing a private practice in Lodi, Dr. Henshaw decided to receive vision therapy for his own vision conditions. His optometrist in Sacramento, Dr. Schwartz, was influenced by Dr. Bob Pepper who was a consultant to the Portland Trailblazers basketball team. After all, if he was going to help others, he should know what they are going through. The results were phenomenal. His athletic skills grew, his concentration peeked, and his efficiency went way up. His nearsightedness acquired at age 14 was reduced by 75%, and he never started vision therapy to change his nearsightedness.
He then began attending vision therapy seminars by Dr. Pepper (yes there is a Dr. Pepper) and even visited Oregon for a week to receive enhancement vision therapy from Dr. Pepper. Meanwhile he yearly attended the San Jose Visual Training Seminars where giants in vision therapy spoke. Each meeting was preceded on a Friday where attendees presented original papers. Dr. Henshaw gave many, but one stands out. He presented a paper on Vision and the Bible. That was the beginning of his book called, What Would Jesus See?-a developmental optometrist's journey through vision care with an eye on the Bible. See our Promotions section to find out how to get the book. The seminars were on all sorts of topics from amblyopia, strabismus, sports vision, orthokeratology, visually related learning problems, and vision enhancement. One of the presentations by Dr. Ralph Schrock revolutionized Dr. Henshaw's examining techniques.
Years ago he flew to Colorado to learn about Light Therapy called Syntonics. That actually led to saving the life of one patient when the skills Dr. Henshaw was taught allowed him to detect a pituitary tumor. He recently followed up in San Diego and became a Fellow College of Syntonic Optometry.
Dr Ken Gibson from Wisconsin pioneered in vision processing vision therapy. Vision processing skills are related to academics. The majority of the kids that are labeled ADD, Dyslexia, etc. often do not have those conditions but suffer from vision processing problems. Dr. Henshaw personalty learned from Dr Gibson which led to the transformation of many kids and even adults who had problems learning.

Many offices pick unreliable automatic instruments that save time for the office not for your care. We have an eye pressure reader (I-care tonometer) that you really do not feel as it contacts your eye. Just like other offices we look for and treat eye diseases. Yet, we know disease treatment is really important. Just as we have real training and experience in real vision conditions especially in vision therapy, we refer to doctors who have real training and experience in real eye diseases.

Our doctor really listens to your concerns, but doesn’t stop there and looks for conditions that really effect your real life of which you may not be aware. You hear the solid click of the real vision tester rather than the hum of the inaccurate automatized device. You are given easy choices in an enjoyable atmosphere during your real exam. After you do not wonder if you gave the right answers. You are tested not only at distance vision but at the close distances where most of your real world exists. Yes, that’s at reading and computer distances where we spend much of our real day.

You get to make choices about your vision treatment for the real world in which you live. There is not only one menu. We care about the quality of your eye glasses or contact lenses. We also care about how they look so you get compliments as well as the correct fit and comfort. California is blessed with at least three quality optical labs, and we have access to them all. Thus, your glasses or contact lenses will really give you efficient and comfortable vision in your real world. Yet, before you get them they were carefully ordered and verified to be sure they meet real standards.
Yet, it doesn’t stop there. Most offices have lost the art of dispensing glasses and are simply handed to you without customization for your real world. That art is not lost in our office. Each pair of glasses is really customized to your face and head, and do not rely on your ears to stay on. Ouch! That really hurts!. Glasses don’t touch your ears!
