Back-to-School
Children learn through their eyes. Eighty percent of what a child understands is learned visually and one in four children have an undetected vision problem. For thousands of children across Texas, they may think the way they see is normal. The longer a problem goes undiagnosed and treated, the more a child’s brain learns to accommodate the problem. This is why educating children, parents, caregivers, nurses, and community volunteers is so important.
