Vision problems can often resemble learning difficulties. Many children struggle with reading and other learning tasks despite the great efforts made to help. It can be hard to tell if a child is suffering from a vision problem because children think how they see is how everyone else sees. It is common, however, for bright students who are underachievers to have a vision issue that is getting in the way of their learning and achievement at school. It’s important for parents to know the symptoms of learning-related vision issues (listed below) to help determine if vision is interfering with a child’s learning. It’s uncommon that children will mention they have these symptoms unless asked. It’s also important for parents and teachers to watch out for signs of vision issues in their students. It’s even less likely that a child would associate these symptoms with learning difficulties without the help of their parents and medical professionals. The tests required to diagnose learning-related vision issues are very rarely included in traditional vision screenings.
