I personally know many people who swear by them, claiming they saw a major improvement in their vision and behavior after being treated by Dr. Alexandra Kobrin in London.

BTW, there are 2 Dr.'s named Kobrin working together (brother's or cousin's) the expert's 1'st name is Alexandra.

There is also another optometrist in London, Dr. Bernard, which many claim is the same expert as Dr. Alexandra just less known, therefore making it much easier to get an appointment with him.

The fee for Dr. Alexandra is 180 GBP vs. Dr. Bernard's 250 GBP.

But add to that the price for the glasses which varies

I heard from many friends tht took their kids there but some didn't do me \themselves the favor and test there childs reading b4 and after to see speed
.some say they feel improvement some say tht not sure if as magical as they anticipated, but do see improvement, so far didn't see someone tht had a child tht wasn't able to follow along in class and saw this new child, every one only says tht ppl swear by dr, but in first hand i didn't meet someone tht can tell me so first hand,

Too recent to notice anything serious, though my wife thinks there are some slight signs of improvement.
