The Use of Orthoptics in Dyslexia.
Haddad, Herskel M.; And Others
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v17 n3 p142-44 Mar 1984
In 73 children (6-13 years old) with reading difficulty, ophthalmological evaluation showed that 18 had overt refractive errors, 18 dyslexia and no ocular anomalies, and 37 impaired fusional amplitudes, 24 of whom were dyslexic. In all Ss with poor fusional amplitudes the reading mechanism could be improved with orthoptic exercises. (Author/CL)
