Did You Know? 1 in 4 Children have a Vision Issue?

It's Back to School Time!

1 in 4 children in the U.S. have a vision issue significant enough to impact their learning and reading!

Since 80 % of what children learn is through their eyes, seeing clearly in the classroom is absolutely critical for their success.

If you child is experiencing frequent headaches, a short attention span, avoids reading or other close activities, frequently rubs their eyes, and tilts their head to one side, they may have a vision problem.

The best way to rule out a vision problem and know whether your child needs glasses is to have them undergo a comprehensive eye exam before the school year begins.
