The goal of this web site is to educate parents and teachers about frequently overlooked vision problems in the hopes of helping those children who struggle unnecessarily because of undiagnosed vision disorders. In fact, many of these children are often suspected of having learning disabilities, dyslexia, or attention deficits when the real culprit is their vision. We invite you to explore the information presented in this site to learn more.
All parents recognize how vital good vision is to their children's development.
Children with poor vision do not develop many normal skills. They may struggle in school, have difficulty in sports, develop poor self-esteem, and have doors closed to many careers because of poor vision. Most parents understand the importance of their child's eyesight, or sharpness of vision as measured by the eye chart. If a child fails the eye chart test, he can get glasses or contacts to correct his blurry vision. But the eye chart's use is limited to only checking a child's distance vision.
