Educational Attainment of 10-Year-Old Children with Treated and Untreated Visual Defects.
Stewart-Brown, Sarah; And Others
Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology, v27 n4 p504-13 Aug 1985
Children with visual impairments who participated in a 10-year survey were compared with peers on measures of intelligence, reading, mathematics, and sporting ability. Results are consistent with earlier findings of increased intelligence among Ss with myopia and slightly reduced intelligence among Ss with amblyopia. It was concluded that the majority of visual problems do not affect children's learning. (CL)
