NORCROSS, GA, August 12, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The connections between vision and learning are clear. Eyeglass World can help you find the perfect eyeglasses for your child and give them the best shot in school.
Obviously, a child who can't see the chalkboard is at a disadvantage to their classmates. We encourage parents to take their children to visit the eye doctor annually. This year when you go to the optometrist, ask how prescription glasses might enhance your child's ability to learn.
When your child's vision suffers, their schoolwork likely will, too. One in four school-age children have vision problems. If these problems remain untreated, they can negatively affect a child's learning ability and adjustment in a school setting. Extracurricular activities, like sports, also depend on good vision.
If you are concerned that your child's vision might be impacting his ability to learn, talk to your eye doctor. It is important to have your child's vision screened to check for astigmatism and near or far-sightedness.
While you are at the optometrist, the doctor will also check your child for basic eye health and can offer you tips to help your child avoid problems like eye strain. Often, headaches are a sign that your child has undiagnosed vision problems. Be sure to mention concerns to your eye care professional.
Des Taylor, Senior Vice President of Merchandising hopes parents will note that correcting your child's vision can help students learn better and concentrate naturally. "When your eyes hurt or you have a headache from squinting, it's hard to learn anything. Help your child find the glasses that meet their vision needs and their social aspirations at Eyeglass World."
