Parents:
Does Your Child
Need Visual
Training?

Does your child mistake the
word was" for saw, or "on"
for mo-. or see things wrong?
This is quite a common
example Of children who need
visual training. according TO the
Virginia Optometric Associa-
ton which is observing National
Save Your Vision Week, March
through r.
DR.. Ernest B. Gatten, Jr..
president of the VOA, sayS that
,,onv children see double, can't
differentiate between a circle
ard a rectaEgle. or find it hard
keep their attention on an
,bject for more than several
seconds
Visual training. I a ess Dr..
Gatten. has become one Of the
most important techniques for
helping children who have
rouble reading Or retaining the
sense Of what they read,
Such training, he adds, sets
Ut conditions that encourage
child to use both eyes to focus
and point together at objects
both near and far. In the past,
says the optometrist. the Snellen
chart, which tested a persons
vision across room, was con-
sidered adequate. But this test
did not reveal whether per-
son could see properly at arm s
length reading a book for
example. Optometric science
has discovered that many chill
dren who can see the black
board clearly do not have the
visual capacity to keep their
eyes focused on a reading page
held in the hands.
Visual training can overcome
this factor, says DR.. Gatten.
And such training can mean the
difference between a child be-
ing classified as backward" or
a brilliant student.
1T is generally acknowledged
that seeing is a learned process"
