Q. Why are Jason and Jennifer
"poor reader*" and dmv
learners" even though they
seem to have average or above
average intelligence?
A. Jason and Jennifer may be
ek-st ribed as having a learning
disability dyslexia or attention
detim disorder But what is the
underlying reason causing them
to lack the ability to learn or
concentrate. One possible
answer is the visual system
Having "perfect" or "20 20"
vision DOFS NOT guarantee
that your ryes work together
Nor does it guarantee lhai your
visual perceptual system, whuh
is now your brain responds to

functioning properly Some of
the symptoms may be blurry
