🤓RECOGNIZE THIS TYPE OF TEST?🤓
This common eye screening tool, only screens for acuity and distance. School and pediatrician based eye screens determine if you have 20/20 eyesight— but do not test for functional vision issues that 1 in 4 children actually have.

80% of what children learn is based on what they SEE. Your child may have a “vision” problem – even with 20/20 eyesight. That’s because VISION occurs in the BRAIN and not in the eyes!

If your child is struggling academically, they may have an undiagnosed, but treatable vision problem. Call (716) 398-4300 to schedule a functional vision evaluation today.
