An Eye on Vision Issues

Volume 8; Issue 2 Week of August 12 to August 18


Hello, Everyone.

Hope everyone is having a good week so far. I was a little sad because of the end of the Olympic Games but thoroughly enjoyed the event. London presented an excellent program. Well Done London.

Women for the USA took care of business. The USA captured 104 medals and 63% of the medals were won by women athletes. Excellent job!

August means some children must begin to think about the start of a new school year and this is a great time to print out an eye chart and do a quick vision screening. An eye chart printed on regular paper should be placed on a wall 10 feet away and then ask your child to read the 20/20 line. If they read the line without any mistakes, the child’s vision is normal.
