the title of the article is:

Scholastic problems: Could the real trouble be a vision disorder?

It was written by Dr. Seiderman, in June 1990
Dr. Seiderman says many children with school problems presented
investment of letters or numbers or delay in learning to read, actually have
a vision problem.
These children are unfairly characterized as unintelligent and often
diagnosed as "incipient learning disability."
The author says that 73 percent of all kids with reading disorders have
impaired vision and this creates a great social impact, since they are
children who end up frustrated,, many such children will develop what
Seiderman calls the I cant do it syndrome, where a child becomes
accustomed to failure, and thinks of himself as unable to learn. A visual
problem can lead to a learning problem, which in turn can lead to a
psychological problem, he said
My partner and I believe that good sight is not enough. A person must be
able to make full use of his vision, said Seiderman
Visual problems are often ignored, he said, or labelled as learning
disabilities
Many people think that if a child can pass the eye chart test, his vision must
be fine,
Some children could be suffering from complex visual problems, two
optometrists say. Glasses alone might not help. But vision
therapy could.
The author says , is not always so. The doctors believe the standard eye
chart is hopelessly outdated, putting the focus on sight, rather than vision.
The difference between sight and vision is crucial, they put forth in their
book, with sight a function of the eyes alone, and vision the interplay
between the eyes and the brain.
Since children entering school must have a full dental exam, Dr.
Seiderman is outraged that the eyes, which provide most of a childs
sensory perception, are tested by charts that havent been updated
since the Civil War days.
He said: To the best of my knowledge, no learning occurs throughout
school through a persons molars.

My opinion
I Think that:
The study of the relationship between vision and learning is generally based on
reductionist studies which take as an only variable visual acuity or refractive state.
It is clear that a refractive error that decreases the visual acuity, will influence academic
performance, but the vision is not only quantity, its a much more complex and
extensive system involved in different cognitive processes.
The inadequate functioning of any visual function will produce symptoms such as letter
and number inversion, letter or word omission, skipping lines, etc, all of them common
to learning disorders.
