Vision Therapy for Children with Autism: Addressing Amblyopia and Strabismus and Stereopsis.
We discuss how vision problems like amblyopia and strabismus are common in children with autism and can significantly impact their ability to write, understand three-dimensional objects, and navigate their environment. We explain why visual cues and pictures are important tools for communication, and we urge parents to consult an ophthalmologist if their child struggles with writing, crossing roads, or understanding real objects despite comprehending pictures. We emphasize that vision therapy is essential and should be started as soon as possible.
