Dyslexia and Vision Issues
Parents often ask whether their child has Dyslexia or a Vision Challenge.
This is a great question
In a study, Dr. Paul Harris,
a well respected Baltimore
Developmental Optometrist,
found that 93% of the students
in Special Education had a
signficant vision issue.
These issues can include:
- Skipping words and lines when reading
- Reversing letters or numbers
- Difficulty copying off the board
Dyslexia is often a problem with words --
the student has difficulty understanding
what they read, putting their thoughts on
paper and with math word problems.
Standardized tests are even worse --
TEST ANXIETY becomes a major threat --
as tension goes up, performance goes down
We strongly recommend being tested for
both learning and vision challenges --
if both exist, we recommend
addressing them both.
We have seen too many people address
one or the other, with less than the best results
We have seen terrific results for parents
addressing both issues:
- A 2nd grader whose standardized
test scores went from the
18th to the 83rd percentile
- A 5th grade whose standardized
test scores went from the
48th to the 95th percentile
If you would like to have a
better understanding of your child's
learning and vision challenges,
consider our on-line assessment.
