Dr. Gerry Getman was a luminary in the development of behavioral optometry.

You can listen to Dr. Getman speak in his own voice about the visual stress effects of video games noted even back in the early days of Pac Man.

Among his many writings is the book How to Develop Your Child's Intelligence.
