The Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation AssociationTM, International (NORA) recognized the following individuals and association last week at NORA’s 28th Annual Conference in Scottsdale, AZ for their important contributions to NORA and the field of Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation.

Vision plays a significant role in our ability to balance, orient ourselves in space, and process movement of things in our environment. The vestibular (inner ear balance) system and the visual system coordinate with each other through brain pathways in order to control the eyes’ ability to maintain a visual gaze on a single location. This connection, known as the vestibulo-ocular reflex, has a critical role in producing eye movements and stabilizing the image during head motion and helping us to maintain our balance.

The Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association, International (NORA) today announced it is offering up to 10 students and residents with an interest in neuro-rehabilitation an opportunity to apply for a student grant to attend the organization’s Clinical Skills Pre-Conference (September 19-20) and 28th annual General Conference (September21-22) at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Scottsdale Resorts, Scottsdale, Arizona.

Nominations are now being accepted by the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association, International (NORA) for the following awards, which acknowledge individuals and organizations for important contributions to the area of Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation.
