What is a Visual Processing Disorder?
It is the inability to analyze and interpret incoming visual information causing weakness in sustained attention, reading, mathematics, writing, visual memory and/or fatigue; the child’s visual acuity and intelligence are normal. The root problem could be due to a problem with both eyes working together, or changing focus rapidly, or maintaining sustained focus, or smooth visual tracking of the eyes. This is not a visual acuity problem; it is a processing problem. I recommend Visual Processing Therapy designed to remediate your child’s visual processing weaknesses.
