Yes, she has. There was nothing wrong. The only thing they found was that she was slightly more far sighted than would be typical for age but no tracking or convergence issues.

FWIW, dh has the exact same symptoms plus possibly a few more. He, too reads very slowly, doesn't like reading, loses his place on the page, and says that he often has to re-read passages to understand what he just read.

I doubt that developmental/behavioral optometrists existed when he was a kid and he's not had that type of eye exam himself, but I am leaning toward thinking that it is some sort of hereditary wiring issue more so than an eye issue.
