I am Dr. Lynn and welcome to Vision Beyond Sight. Join me each week as I have powerful and inspiring conversations with my guests in the areas of health and wellness, vision care, brain health, education, sports, and psychology. They will share their inspirational stories of healing and life transformation through their treatments and vision expansion.

For more than 45 years as a developmental optometrist, I’ve helped thousands of people transform their lives through vision training and visualization. Now, my passion has shifted from treating patients individually with traditional vision problems to empowering people to utilize their inner vision through visualization. My mission is to inspire and empower millions of people through their vision and visualization skills so that they may see and experience their world through the lens of clarity, courage, and confidence. And with my new way to look at your life through a new “lens”, you will be ready to meet yourself and receive visualizations for miracles to come.

Your vision does not define you...you define your vision. A Vision Beyond Sight.


About Dr. Lynn Hellerstein

A pioneer in vision therapy and developmental optometry, for more than 30 years Dr. Lynn has helped thousands of children and adults improve their vision and transform their lives — at home, in the classroom, and most recently on the playing field. Her breakthrough methods unlock barriers to learning and “rewire” around brain injuries, and vision perception or processing deficits. But you don’t have to have a vision problem to benefit: her brain training strategies may be the missing magic if you’re an athlete trying to nail a tricky shot or stay cool in competition. If it’s a skill you can visualize, Dr. Lynn can help train your eyes — and mind’s eye — on success.

Award-winning author

Dr. Lynn has extensive professional publications to her credit, but witnessing the joy of her patients overcoming a learning barrier or meeting a sports goal put her on a mission: to deliver her methods into a form that could reach a wide audience of parents and educators, to help more kids and more athletes. Her award-winning series, SEE IT. SAY IT. DO IT!®, is the happy result.
