Dear Parents,

The new school year will be here before you know it. It doesn’t matter whether classes are online or in person, the key to having a successful academic year is good vision. During school, your child’s vision is constantly in use so when they are having a problem with their vision it can affect their academic performance.

Don’t assume your child’s vision is good. Start their school year off with a thorough eye examination. Only an eye examination can alert you to symptoms that may indicate your child has a vision or visual processing problem. Pay attention to these symptoms:

  • Loses his or her place while reading
  • Avoids close work
  • Holds reading material closer than normal
  • Tends to rub eyes
  • Has headaches
  • Turns or tilts head to use one eye only
  • Makes frequent reversals when reading or writing
  • Uses finger to maintain place while reading
  • Omits or confuses small words when reading
  • Performs below potential

 


 

Your child’s vision changes can occur without you or your child realizing it. Have your child’s vision examined at least once a year. Call (513) 755-7775 to schedule your appointment with Dr. Kenneth Crawford for an eye examination.
