Vision experts say 80% of a child's learning comes through their visual system so a student's eye health can be very important for success in the classroom.

Dr. Pamela Lowe of the American Optometric Association explains how vision problems can be misunderstood in the classroom, "1 in 4 children have an undetected vision disorder, that's a huge number of kids entering school this fall that could have potential problems.  In fact, kids labeled as problem learners, 60% have underlying vision disorders."

A comprehensive eye exam is reccommended to catch any vision problems early.
