The struggle with Stereopsis

There is a lack of awareness of binocular vision problems. Vision impairment gives serious reading problems for the pupil, can reduce the pupils learning and may damage their self-esteem and socialization. The ability for the eyes to cooperate and create a picture in the brain can often be trained to improve through Vision Therapy and when the program is complete the benefits of the vision training will last for a lifetime. The struggle with Stereopsis is based on a personal story and experience/knowledge but is not a scientific work. The article is about our son with Asperger Syndrome and ADHD who had serious reading problems. The article describes the process that Christian was going through to get to the goal of learning to read.
