Click here to learn how an eye exam at a regular physical check-up may miss looking at the key visual functions that children need to succeed.

August is COVD’s Vision and Learning Month. At the beginning of each school year, we take this opportunity to encourage parents to schedule a full developmental eye examination for their child(ren).
