Oh one more thing! (sorry) I read on the Children's Eye Foundation site that you linked this statement:

"Orthoptic eye exercises as prescribed by pediatric ophthalmologists, orthoptists, and optometrists can be beneficial in the treatment of symptomatic convergence insufficiency"

And that is my son's diagnosis symptomatic convergence insufficiency - specifically intermittent symptomatic convergence insufficiency. So actually it looks even the Children's Eye Foundation does endorse it for that diagnosis, which would be why it's been such a good experience for us so far.

I guess what you really need to find out is does your DD actually have dyslexia or does she have a symptomatic convergence insufficiency?

As an aside, once dyslesxia is diagnosed does insurance cover any of the costs in general of treating that? special tutors or whatever? Just wondering in case my son ends up witht hat diagnosis eventually.
