Omgosh, thank you for this thread. (Light bulb moment!) DS8 has strabismus and is a very visual-spatial kid. Imagine if you had a brain with a preference for the visual but a wonky eye... good golly. Here I thought the French Immersion wreaking havoc with his language processing disorder was his only issue, lol. (sigh)
Fyi, his strabismus is better now than when he was 6. He got the right care early enough (hasn't needed surgery yet) and things are getting better
Marytheres: could your son's visual perceptual processing disorder be connected to his strabismus? Not sure which brain region(s) are at work here. We know about the potential "brain vision loss" that can result when a brain starts to disregard an untreated strabismus eye, but I wonder if it can cause visual processing delays as well. Interesting.
