Kids Connect is offering screening for behavioral/functional vision issues through a grant from the MetroWest Community Healthcare Foundation. The screening will determine if tracking or other functional issues are affecting the ability to focus in school. If an issue is found, the grant will provide glasses and/or therapy in the form of a program of exercises to strengthen and balance the muscles in the eye. If you think your student might benefit from this screening, please fill out the Vision Symptom Questionaire and then call Deb at 508-652-4211 to discuss scheduling.
