Parents want their children to do well at school. 80% of learning depends on vision, so ensuring your child has good vision is crucial to successful learning! For school-age children, several visual skills must work together to see and understand clearly; clear vision for near and far, ability to focus accurately, and proper tracking for reading. If any of these visual skills are lacking or impaired, your child may develop headaches or fatigue. An eye exam with an optometrist can identify any visual problems. Spectacles or eye exercises can provide clear and comfortable vision for easier learning.
