Los maestros y los padres están en la mejor posición para tomar nota de cualquier señal de problemas relacionados con la visión.
Hay muchos problemas visuales diferentes relacionados con el aprendizaje que pueden impactar el desempeño escolar de un niño. Habilidades como coordinación mano-ojo, habilidad para leer y para enfocar, todo está atado, no en una pequeña parte, a la visión.
Estos problemas sólo pueden ser formalmente diagnosticados por un profesional del cuidado de los ojos, pero hay numerosas señales notables que pueden indicar que hay un problema, y es importante tanto para los padres como para los maestros el reconocer estos para que al notarse, el niño pueda recibir un diagnóstico correcto y tratamiento.
Si un problema es reconocido y tratado rápidamente, puede prevenir un pequeño problema volverse mayor.
Expertos dicen que aproximadamente el 80 por ciento de lo que un niño aprende en la escuela es hecho visualmente. La buena visión es esencial si un niño va a alcanzar un máximo potencial académico.
Además a las obvias dificultades académicas que estos problemas pueden causar, también pueden dañar la autoestima del niño en un punto crítico en su vida.
Aquí hay una lista no exhaustiva de señales que podrían indicar si un niño podría estar sufriendo de un problema visual relacionado con el aprendizaje.
Si alguno de estos síntomas aparece, los padres del niño deberían estar informados tanto del problema como del hecho de que podría ser un problema visual (a diferencia de una discapacidad de aprendizaje.) La responsabilidad de los padres es llevar a su niño a un profesional del cuidado de los ojos para que su vista pueda ser correctamente examinada y, cualquier problema tratado.
Such a nice optician. My grandson is only 4 and needs glasses. We were so sad, but he explained the issues, and we will follow up as he suggested.
I had such a good experience with the clinic. Very friendly staff and doctor, did not have to wait for long to be called, and was treated respectfully. Thanks, American Family.
Dr. Zurcher has gone above and beyond what any other eye doctor has ever done to figure out what is going on with my eyes. Very happy with American Family Vision.
Family Vision Clinic changed our lives! My daughter was frequently car sick, and she was getting headaches every day, often painful enough that they brought her to tears. We saw a string of doctors and therapists, but we made no progress. Finally, we found Dr. Levi Zurcher and his eye therapist Rain. After ten weeks of eye therapy my daughter no longer gets headaches, and she no longer gets car sick. Daily tears are a thing of the past. I really can’t say enough about this clinic. It was fascinating to watch Dr. Zurcher work. For the first time, someone who knew what they were doing was intently studying my daughter, really trying to figure out all of her eye issues, and his therapist Rain is one of the most patient and lovely people that I’ve ever had the good fortune to meet. We’re finished with eye therapy—yay!—and I have switched to American Family Vision Clinic for all of my family’s other eye health needs.
Very professional, yet kind and helpful. They do what they can to make the appointment comfortable. I was running a bit late, I made sure ti call. They were able to switch me with a patient who was already there, they treated me with respect, and helped my son have confidence by getting him the eye care he needed that day. Thank you so much! Would recommend to anyone. It's a blessing that they care enough to work with people who have all different types of insurance from work to state coverage.
The staff is friendly. The Doc is very knowledgeable. The office is family friendly and everyone is so patient with the little ones.
