Dr. Virginia Donati is a Canadian optometrist working in Ontario, with a special interest in binocular vision and vision rehabilitation. She is one of the founders of Vision Therapy Canada and is currently the president of the organization. She shares her knowledge on why patching therapy for amblyopia should be discontinued, and how optometrists can perform a unique method of spectacle prescriptions for amblyopia treatment instead.
