Questions and Answers

1.

20/20 means perfect vision.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
A measurement of 20/20 indicates only that a person can see small letters clearly in the distance. The excellent, healthy vision includes many other visual skills, such as coordinating the two eyes together (eye teaming), changing and/or maintaining focus quickly and easily, and moving the two eyes efficiently from one place to another.

A young child with lazy eye or poor eye movements will generally outgrow these problems.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
In general, children do not outgrow eye coordination problems or many other visual problems. When problems occur, steps need to be taken to help children learn to move their eyes smoothly and accurately when reading the words on a page or following a moving object like a ball.

6.

Most people are born with normal vision.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Although most of us are born with healthy eyes, many visual skills (e.g. eye focusing, eye coordination and teaming) are learned through a developmental process during childhood -- just like standing, walking, and talking. Not everyone develops the same level of abilities.

Rate this question:
7.

Many of the signs and symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are similar to those of common vision problems.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Many of the same signs and symptoms are shown by persons with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may also be indications of vision problems (e.g. poor concentration, distractibility, avoidance of reading and close work).

Rate this question:
8.

A vision problem is rarely the cause of a learning disorder.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Problems with eye focusing, eye coordination, eye movement control, and visual perception can all interfere with a child's or adult's ability to read or learn. Whenever a learning problem is suspected or "identified", a thorough vision examination needs to be conducted to rule out a possible vision disorder.

Rate this question:
9.

Vision therapy is only successful in treating vision problems in children. It's "too late" for improvement in adults.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Successful outcomes resulting from vision therapy are not limited to children. Adults can also benefit. However, effective treatment of a long-standing visual problem is more challenging. This is why early detection and treatment are so very important.

Rate this question:
10.

A school vision screening will test for learning related vision problems.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Most school vision screenings test distance vision only. Clear distance vision has little bearing on how effectively a child uses his eyes for close work and reading in the classroom.
