Instructions for using this strategy:
I'm writing because I too was frustrated by my daughter's poor performance and lack of interest in school. She was showing signs of being LD and we had LD testing done that indicated she was headed down the road to being labeled LD. Then we found www.oculearn.com. This led us, after the screening, to a behavioral optometrist that diagnosed her as having a vision processing disorder. She was seeing two different things with each eye (normal), but was not putting the two images together in her brain and coming up with the same answer each time (not normal). After a year and a half of vision therapy, she is doing much better and actually likes school!
