She can see better than I can now smile And, she showed dramatic improvement with her reading during that time.

Thank you so much for that link!!! I took DD8 to 2 diff. drs last yr thinking maybe vision was the reason for reading difficulties. Both said her vision was fine then she failed the school screening this year. Maybe it's gotten bad in a year but she has some other issues as well with school (she's not my HG kid). There is a dr less than 1 mile away! I'm so excited to call on Monday for an appt. I just have hope that based on her issues, we might find some answers there.
