Abstract
Social media is a popular, poorly vetted health care information source. Vision therapy is a controversial topic that some claim can benefit patients with visual processing disorders, despite no supporting evidence. The authors assessed quality of Instagram (Meta Platforms) posts tagged with #visiontherapy, finding few high-quality posts and no correlation between engagement and quality. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2025;62(1):e8-e13.].
