[QUOTE="Nat, post: 2864, member: 465"] Wow Susan! I am taking difficult child tomorrow for that same kind of appointment! I had difficult child tested by the school Occupational Therapist and he found that my son't eyes don't always converge etc. etc. Pretty much the same things as you just posted! The Occupational Therapist (OT) referred us so I guess we will find out for sure tomorrow. There is a group calling themselves the Excel Institute who is opening a center right in our town. They are boasting some amazing things like reading levels boosted up 3 years etc.(after 6 months of going to them) Their whole idea is that it is not bad vision, but the eyes not working together etc. They instruct using a program called Integrated Visual Learning. I went and heard the founder/owner speak and he spent alot of time talking about brain development and not enough about what they actually do there!! It is costly, too-I think $60-90 a session at least once a week for a minimum of 6 months. I haven't counted this therapy out, I just want to get difficult child evaluated by an eye specialist that IS NOT the owner of this Excel company!! I am sure that is way more then you wanted to know, but maybe they will be coming to MN and maybe it is something that would help your son as well. Take care! Nat ------------------ 9 yr. male diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, ADD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), ODD Doing well (finally) on Luvox, Risperdal and Clonodine for sleep 2.5 yr male easy child husband 11.5 years [/QUOTE]
