Back To School Series: Is It Really ADD/ADHD?

Has ADHD testing been recommended for your child? Are you concerned about their behavior and suspect ADHD? Have you noticed any of the following signs or symptoms?

  • Loses concentration during reading but can focus on something more fun like a video game or sports

  • Restless, irritable, and short attention span with reading

  • Disturbs others in class, especially during reading or writing activities

  • Bumps into things, trips, falls, unaware of surroundings

  • Hates to read, but likes to be read to by teacher/parents

  • Learning problems continue, even after starting medication

If you can say yes to any of the above signs or symptoms we recommend attending this workshop! Did you know, 80% of ADD/ADHD symptoms overlap that of a functional vision problem? If your child has passed a vision screening; but still has these signs and symptoms, a vision problem, unrelated to 20/20 far away, could still be present. 

Join us during this virtual event to discuss your concerns with our developmental optometrist, Neil Renaud OD, FAAO, FCOVD. You'll learn how vision could be playing a key role in your child's suspected ADHD and simple ways you can screen from home. 

Have questions, call us, we're happy to help!
