Complimentary Functional Vision Screenings
You and your child have likely done a vision screening either through school or in some cases, their pediatrician’s office, which should catch any concerns with 20/20 distant eyesight. But what about the world right in front of you?
What is a Functional Vision Screening?
A functional vision screening goes beyond a standard vision test to assess how your eyes work together as a team and how your visual system interacts with your brain. It evaluates essential skills like eye coordination, depth perception, and eye tracking, which are crucial for everyday activities like reading, driving, and sports.
Why is a Functional Vision Screening Important?
A functional vision screening can help detect hidden vision problems that may not be identified in a standard eye exam. These problems can cause symptoms such as headaches, eye strain, difficulty reading, poor hand-eye coordination, and balance issues. Early detection and intervention can help prevent these problems from interfering with your daily life and overall well-being.
