Learning disabilities are one of the factors that cause many problems in reading, fluency, writing, dictation, mathematics and other skills that may cause a person problems and jeopardize his educational future. Soroosh Optometry and Vision Therapy Clinic in Shiraz provides an appropriate and specialized environment for eye examinations in all age groups, developmental tests of visual movements, treatment of lazy eye in children and adults, treatment of strabismus without surgery, treatment of lazy eye with vision therapy, vision therapy to relieve visual fatigue and eye headaches for dear patients.
Studies have shown that children who have difficulty reading, spelling, writing, math, and other academic skills often have deficits in the developmental skills of visual motor skills.
For example, both eyes do not work together as a system (binocular vision impairment), and their eyes do not work together when they converge.
The eyes are further apart than normal.
They have difficulty keeping the text clear while reading or copying from a whiteboard to a notebook and maintaining the clarity of the words (congruence problems).
Or the reading process requires regular eye movements from one word to the next in a fraction of a second. If this time is longer than normal, the child will experience a slowdown in reading fluency. Other disorders in these movements include the visual system’s impairment in estimating the distance between two words, where the eye makes a larger jump instead of a small one, missing the second word and the eyes are forced to return to the previous word. This eye movement to catch the second word will lead to loss of time and slowness in reading or repeating the reading, and the child’s lack of understanding. These movements are called saccades or microsaccades, which are completely related to reading fluency and are a factor in causing vision-related learning disorders.
Or cases where a child makes a mistake in estimating the distance to read the next line while finishing reading the first line and misses a line, causing the eyes to wander around looking for the related line while reading, which in turn causes slowness in reading fluency, losing the line, and ultimately leads to using the finger to read texts.
When a child uses his finger to read a text, this indicates a disorder in the pursuit and jumping movements of the eyes.
They have difficulty when they look at a moving object and try to follow it. (Problems in pursuit movements and eye jumping movements).
These cases, especially in students, play a very important role in their learning at school and completing their homework.
These vision problems make the person ineffective and cause many complaints, both visual and academic, in the person.
Remember, children think that these problems they experience are normal.
Your child closes one eye when reading or tends to tilt his head while reading.
Your child adds or removes parts of words when reading.
He has blurred vision or makes mistakes when writing on the board.
When solving math problems, your child cannot write numbers in a row because he sees the numbers moving towards each other.
The child is slow in reading fluently and often repeats or rereads some words while reading, has difficulty finding the next line when the line is finished and loses the line, which is why he often uses his finger while reading to avoid missing words or lines.
Eye coordination is an essential ability for a child to avoid learning disabilities in education. When both eyes look at the same object, the information coming from both eyes is combined in the brain and forms an image.
If one eye looks at the object in question and the other is slightly to the side, the information coming from both eyes is not integrated properly and double vision occurs.
Parental refusal is the first obstacle in diagnosing and treating vision-related learning disorders
In most cases, parents resist accepting the existence of disorders in their child, for example, in reading fluency, dictation, and issues like that, saying, “My child is very smart and has no problems and I don’t see any need for any special work.”
This refusal to accept jeopardizes the child’s educational future, while these disorders are not diseases, in fact, they are skills that a person needs to learn, such as cycling skills… Do we say that someone who does not know how to ride a bike has a disorder?!
Cycling is a type of skill that, with practice and education, becomes part of a person’s cognitive unconscious and a person can easily ride it.
The developmental skill of eye movements is also a skill that can be improved with specific exercises.
One child may acquire this skill more quickly, another at a later age, and another child may not reach the necessary level at all and may need further developmentally.
With vision therapy and vision exercises, we help this process happen more quickly and, in fact, that ability and skill are achieved in accordance with age.
Sometimes children avoid studying.
Do you know why?
Interestingly, parents express that their child is naughty? Or playful!!
But it is better not to label our children with this label until we have done the vision analysis test.
This test will show you exactly where your child’s problem lies.
The inability of the eyes to follow words, lack of coordination between the two eyes, blurred vision can make the reading process a tiring task for the child.
Vision therapy does not teach reading, but rather provides the person with accurate and appropriate tools that make the reading process easier and more enjoyable.
Language of Receiving and Expressing Information
Children whose eye motor skills and visual system dominance are weak have difficulty in verbal instruction and even in expressing that instruction. Such students are said to have poor language of receiving and expressing information.
When the visual thinking term is weak, these language problems occur. They try to remember the words they hear. Instead of using the visual thinking skill to transform what they hear into visual visualization and mental imagery, they memorize the words they hear to use them when necessary.
Like other problems we have discussed on the site, this problem also occurs due to the deviation of the visual thinking pattern in education from its original path.
Improper teaching conditions:
Children who have difficulty with language acquisition and expression may not be able to visualize what they hear because they are too busy remembering what they hear.
Research has shown that when a child tries to remember what they hear instead of visualizing it, the devices record the least activity in their frontal cortex (the part of the brain associated with remembering things along with mental imagery).
