Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Get a functional vision exam if diagnosed with ADHD – many symptoms overlap with vision problems like convergence insufficiency.
- Check for convergence insufficiency – children with ADHD are 3x more likely to have this eye coordination issue.
- Rule out strabismus (eye turn) – ADHD-diagnosed individuals are 2x as likely to have this condition.
- Test for hyperopia/astigmatism – these refractive errors are twice as common in ADHD cases.
Notable Quotes
“So many of the symptoms and behaviors of functional vision problems are so similar to those of ADD, ADHD, dyslexia, learning disabilities”
Bottom Line
Before accepting an ADHD diagnosis, get evaluated by a functional vision specialist – undiagnosed eye problems may be causing similar symptoms.
