Although Daisy's eyes test out at 20/20, she has some vision problems. You can read a little about vision problems here:
http://www.vision-therapy.com/About_Vision.htm
She goes to vision therapy every other week with eye exercises to do at home. This treatment is not covered by our insurance. An average person goes through treatment in 9 months, going every week. At $100 per session (or $95 if you pay for four sessions at a time), even going every other week like we do adds up.
She recently had a re-evaluation and the doctor was very pleased. She's making faster progress than the doctor expected.
I think this progress is due to the fact that Daisy actually does the home work. We sit down every week day, before school time, and do it. She can't do it on her own; I have to watch her eyes, time some of the exercises, etc. I don't know how kids who go to regular school can do this - when Daisy is tired this "eye work" is very hard.
Anyway, the more regularly we work at home, the faster the treatment and the less expensive it is in total. I'm happy about that!
Oh, and I should add that I'm happy that Daisy's vision is improving. I can tell the difference even though she doesn't think she has a problem.
