  • Title: Learning disabilities and vision problems: are they related?
    Author: Keys MP, Silver LB.
    Journal: Pediatrician; 1990; 17(3):194-201. PubMed ID: 2194184.
    Abstract:
    Vision problems can interfere with the process of learning. However, vision problems are not the cause of learning disabilities. If a child or adolescent is diagnosed as having a learning disability, refraction and eye muscle function must be assessed. If no disorders are found or, if found and corrected, the treatment of choice for the learning disability is special education.
