[quote=Anonymous]My sister got vision therapy in high school after struggling for many years. She is very bright, but always had trouble with reading. She'd been diagnosed and then undiagnosed with dyslexia many times over her school career. Finally it all came to a head when she couldn't get a reasonable score on the SATs. She had a perfect score in AP calc, but couldn't break a 1000/1600 on the SATs. Her math score was sub-400. It turned out that she couldn't see to bubble the scantron. My parents paid big big bucks for vision therapy. She spent a year going to therapy, but it brought her SAT score high enough for a.full college scholarship. She credits vision therapy with her being able to get into a college at all, a scholarship and making it through college. It made a huge difference in her life. She now has a PhD in Chemistry and works at a.tech start up in Silicon Valley. It's not all voodoo. If your eyes don't track, it can make a huge difference.[/quote]
