Improving Vision Through
Proven Methods & Compassion
All day long, your eyes work in conjunction with your brain to perform the complicated functions of vision. For many kids and adults, there’s something wrong within that complex system. Sometimes, these problems are missed in a traditional eye exam.
At Belle Vue Specialty Eye Care, we take a functional optometry approach to tackling tough vision issues. From kids who struggle at school with reading or writing, to people recovering from brain injury and those living with low vision due to eye diseases or other causes, our eye doctors aim to understand how you see the world and create a custom plan to help you see better.
All of our services are built from a place of compassion, understanding, and personal experience and we love what we do. We deeply understand what you, your child, or your loved one are going through and we want to help.

What Is Vision Therapy?
Vision therapy is a highly customized, noninvasive treatment approach designed to improve how a person’s eyes and brain work together. It uses structured, tailored activities to address specific challenges that affect vision, motor skills, and cognitive processing. Unlike eyeglasses or contact lenses, which correct eyesight, vision therapy focuses on enhancing your brain’s ability to process visual information effectively.
At Belle Vue Specialty Eye Care, vision therapy is more than just a program—it’s a personalized process that helps both children and adults overcome hurdles affecting their daily lives. For children, this might include difficulties with reading, writing, or concentrating in school. For adults, vision therapy can support recovery from brain injuries, such as concussions, by retraining the brain to interpret visual input more accurately.

What Our Patients are Saying
Several years before seeing Dr. Lott our child had surgery to “correct” her particular eye issue. We were told by other doctors she needed same surgery again for the same issue, but instead we decided to try Vision therapy at Belle Vue. Best decision we ever made! Dr. Lott, Dr. Maples, and the staff at Belle Vue have worked wonders with our child’s vision. Wish we would have tried vision therapy from the very beginning. Our child’s vision & grades have greatly improved and now LOVES to read! Belle Vue is the BEST!!
MR
The best combination of professional expertise and caring, individual attention around! Dr. Megan and all the staff were incredibly helpful in providing direction and care for our newly adopted twins from China, and the time they spent making sure the kids felt comfortable was over-and-above what I ever expected. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
LM
My kids love coming here! They are very kind, caring, patient, and friendly. Love the staff and Dr. Lott!!!
BM
If your child has been struggling in school, I encourage you to bring them here before you do anything else. My daughter had vision issues beyond the usual 20/20 that were inhibiting reading comprehension, writing, and focus. When Dr Lott had measured tests with a plan to treat and improve each one my daughter’s challenges, I knew we had come to the right place. She just did her final evaluation, and her progress over twelve weeks of therapy was astounding. I’m so very grateful for the wonderful therapists at Belle Vue.

Dr Megan Lott is amazing! My daughter has multiple disabilities and she did not once hesitate to treat her. We had been to two other pediatric ophthalmologists, one which wrote her off and one which advised us to go to the Low Vision clinic, before we found Dr Lott. Dr Lott understood what my focus was for my daughter’s vision and worked to come up with a plan to help her have the best use of her functional vision. We got her glasses this afternoon and she hasn’t stopped looking around and smiling and giggling since! Thank you from this mama’s heart for giving my daughter a whole new world!

My son was struggling in school and had very little confidence in himself. Dr. Lott and the staff at Belle Vue were the help that he needed! The results of his vision therapy amaze me! Homework is no longer an ordeal and he is now an honor roll student. He is now very confident and doesn’t approach things with an “I can’t” attitude. I honestly believe that the vision therapy he received at Belle Vue will help him succeed in life!

Dr. Lott and her staff at Belle Vue Specialty Eye Care are extraordinary. Along with being professional and very knowledgeable, they have such a sincere concern for all of their patients. I cannot thank Dr. Lott and her staff enough for what they have done for my family. The Hattiesburg area is so extremely fortunate to have them treating our children. I will always be grateful!
We love Dr Lott and everyone who works there. They are so nice!! Both of my boys went through vision therapy and the progress they made was remarkable. We can not thank them enough!!

BVESC staff is always so welcoming to my children – even though having my children in the office can be chaotic. Beyond that, they provide in depth exams that go further than do you need a glasses prescription but to try to get to the root of the matter. They provide in-house therapy and refer out for therapy. My son no longer needs glasses due to their services!!!!
BH
Dr. Megan Lott is amazing! Her knowledge and expertise as an eye care specialist is second to none. We are so very grateful for the way she has helped our entire family. She spent countless hours preparing a plan for one of our grandsons and pouring encouragement into his heart and mind to help him overcome dyslexia. Dr. Meagan has our highest recommendation and support.
DR
My son was provided a thorough eye exam and vision testing per Dr. Lott. Outstanding, professional, knowledgeable service combined with superior excellence in listening, assessment and critical thinking skills. The entire staff is great with children (and mom 😉 ). As a mom of 4 kids (oldest is 23y.o., youngest is 9y.o.) and RN background, I admit this is super rare find! Very impressed with Dr. Lott and office staff. Thank y’all so much for caring!!

If you are looking for exceptional service and expertise, this is it. Very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful! Our little guy had a great experience, and the service and eyeglass selection is phenomenal!
KV
Dr. Lott is amazing. After 2 other pediatric ophthalmologists simply dismissed my daughter and her vision deficits, we found Dr. Lott. She believed in Addison’s potential to increase her functional vision. Not only did Addison’s eye tracking improve but her head control all improved because she had a reason to look up now! Dr. Lott does whatever it takes to help a child see!
CD
The most amazing people work in this clinic. My son has been a patient with them for 6 months. He has Autism.
They have been a miracle for us. He is no longer on seizure medication, he wasn’t he having seizures. He couldnt see. His reading on a 8.2 reading level. He is 7. He is more social. ODD and OCD are not as bad.
They found what numerous Dr’s and therapist had missed.

We thought my son had dyslexia because he had so many symptoms that pointed in that direction. Then we heard about Dr Lott! We immediately had him tested and started on therapy. I could see vast improvements in confidence and interest in physical activity. We just finished a second round of therapy and we were shocked at the difference in his testing. He had improved in so many areas.
My favorite thing to date is that he has almost finished reading a 150 page chapter book since yesterday!! He always hated reading before therapy. I couldn’t recommend Bellevue Specialty Eye Care enough!
KR
Dr. Lott was so thorough and took the time to sit and explain everything to me. It was well worth the 85 mile trip one way! There’s gonna be a 10 year old little girl that will see the best in her life from now on. Everyone was very welcoming and polite. Would definitely send people to her.
