We are dedicated to enhancing your child's reading and learning through targeted vision therapy. Understanding the key visual skills essential for reading can help identify potential challenges your child may face.
According to the American Optometric Association (AOA), 1 in 4 children has a vision problem that impacts their reading and academic performance.
Since 80% of learning is visual, a vision problem can directly impact a child’s academic success.
There are at least 17 essential visual skills that help you see clearly and comfortably for near and far, as well as while reading, writing, spelling, crafting, playing sports, and more!
Relevant visual skills required for reading include eye-tracking, eye-teaming, convergence, accommodation, and visual fixation — all skills that are assessed during a functional visual evaluation
