About this listen

 I am Dr. Lynn and welcome to Vision Beyond Sight. Join me each week as I have powerful and inspiring conversations with my guests in the areas of health and wellness, vision care, brain health, education, sports, and psychology. They will share their inspirational stories of healing and life transformation through their treatments and vision expansion. For more than 45 years as a developmental optometrist, I’ve helped thousands of people transform their lives through vision training and visualization. Now, my passion has shifted from treating patients individually with traditional vision problems to empowering people to utilize their inner vision through visualization. My mission is to inspire and empower millions of people through their vision and visualization skills so that they may see and experience their world through the lens of clarity, courage, and confidence. And with my new way to look at your life through a new “lens”, you will be ready to meet yourself and receive visualizations for miracles to come. Your vision does not define you...you define your vision. A Vision Beyond Sight. About Dr. Lynn Hellerstein A pioneer in vision therapy and developmental optometry, for more than 30 years Dr. Lynn has helped thousands of children and adults improve their vision and transform their lives — at home, in the classroom, and most recently on the playing field. Her breakthrough methods unlock barriers to learning and “rewire” around brain injuries, and vision perception or processing deficits. But you don’t have to have a vision problem to benefit: her brain training strategies may be the missing magic if you’re an athlete trying to nail a tricky shot or stay cool in competition. If it’s a skill you can visualize, Dr. Lynn can help train your eyes — and mind’s eye — on success. Award-winning author Dr. Lynn has extensive professional publications to her credit, but witnessing the joy of her patients overcoming a learning barrier or meeting a sports goal put her on a mission: to deliver her methods into a form that could reach a wide audience of parents and educators, to help more kids and more athletes. Her award-winning series, SEE IT. SAY IT. DO IT!®, is the happy result.© 2026 Toginet Radio Hygiene & Healthy Living

    From Science to Sight: Foundation Fighting Blindness Accelerating Hope and Advancing Retinal Disease Breakthroughs with Dr. Amy Laster (Episode #150)
    Mar 26 2026
    Dr. Lynn Hellerstein of Vision Beyond Sight sits down with Dr. Amy Laster, neuroscientist & Chief Scientific Officer at the Foundation Fighting Blindness that advances cures for retinal diseases, to talk about bridging cutting-edge science with human connection and leading the Foundation Fighting Blindness to accelerate research for rare eye diseases. As a neuroscientist-turned-nonprofit leader, she shares how translating complex science into human impact is advancing treatments – while keeping patients, families, and possibility at the heart of every breakthrough. Dr. Laster shares her journey from neuroscience into nonprofit leadership, revealing how her “superpower” of big-picture strategic thinking helps drive research forward more efficiently. Together, they unpack what retinal diseases are, the scope of their impact—from rare inherited conditions to age-related macular degeneration—and the innovative therapies offering new hope. From gene augmentation treatments like Luxturna to emerging clinical trials in retinal cell transplantation, this conversation bridges complex science with real-world impact. You’ll also hear powerful patient stories, including Rebecca Alexander’s experience with Usher syndrome and Lindsey Rambo’s groundbreaking role in early gene therapy trials. Beyond the lab, Dr. Laster highlights the importance of community, family support, and ensuring patients remain at the heart of every scientific advance. She also discusses the Foundation’s ambitious 5-year strategic plan and the evolving ways they measure success—including new technologies like virtual reality testing and using focal points of light. This episode is a compelling look at how innovation, empathy, and purpose are shaping the future of vision science—and why no one facing vision loss has to navigate it alone.

  • Always Moving Forward: Leadership, Legacy and Compassion in End-of-Life Care with David A. Jones, Jr. (Episode #149)

    Always Moving Forward: Leadership, Legacy and Compassion in End-of-Life Care with David A. Jones, Jr. (Episode #149)
    Mar 12 2026
    In this heartfelt episode, Dr. Lynn Hellerstein of Vision Beyond Sight sits down with David A. Jones, Jr., a leading venture capitalist and a well-respected voice in healthcare business and innovation, for a powerful conversation honoring the legacy of his father, David A. Jones, which includes being editor to his memoir, Always Moving Forward - a book of friends, family and building Humana. David shares the remarkable story of his father’s journey from poverty to building one of America’s most influential healthcare companies—beginning as the largest nursing home operator in the U.S. and evolving into a major national health insurance provider. Drawing from Always Moving Forward, he reflects on the leadership lessons that shaped his father’s life and career, including the philosophy he carried from his time in the U.S. Navy: “The most important responsibility of a leader is to decide.” The conversation goes far beyond business. David explores the deep challenges facing today’s end-of-life care system—from fragmented care and the “schlepping” many patients endure between providers, to the urgent need for better coordination, compassionate communication, and more humane approaches. They discuss the promise of community-based palliative care, the role of physical therapy and musculoskeletal health in preventing decline, and why addressing loneliness, addiction, and holistic wellness must be part of the future of healthcare. Above all, they reflect on what most people truly hope for in their final years: dignity, comfort, and the assurance they are not a burden. This episode blends personal storytelling, healthcare insight, and timeless wisdom—including touching family memories and reflections on finding joy in music and life’s simple moments.
