What we Know

80% of a child’s development relies on vision. Uncorrected vision can result in developmental delays that affect the child’s ability to learn and succeed in academics, sports, and other activities. Studies have found that uncorrected vision can contribute to anxiety and depression as a result of not being able to fully engage in the world around them.
