Learning Issues
Strong visual skills are essential for academic success. All of the fundamental components of learning rely heavily on the strength of the visual skills. It is important to treat vision problems as early as possible in order to enable a child to reach their full potential.
Reading and Dyslexia
Reading requires the integration of a number of different vision skills: visual acuity, visual fixation, accommodation, binocular fusion, convergence, field of vision, and form perception. Often vision related reading deficits are overlooked due to children not complaining about how they see.
Vision and ADHD
Recent research has shown that ADHD behaviors may actually be a result of vision problems. If your child is fidgety, hyperactive, or distressed by his schoolwork, you may think that a diagnosis of ADHD is obvious. In the last 15 years, many clinical trials have been published and show that many vision problems can affect your child in the same way as an attention deficit disorder.
