Our daughter had a focusing problem when she was 8-10 years old causing headaches, pressure behind her eyes, and an inability to concentrate and her physicians refused to allow her to use a 3 x 5 card as a guide, saying it would cause her eyes to be lazy. Instead they recommended bifocals and eye exercises. Although she loves reading and good books, she's been plagued ever since with headaches and nausea if she reads too much. Her doctor now says she has a very strange problem of 'over-focusing' when trying to read. I think she would have been better off if everyone would have just let Mama give her a 3 x 5 card!!! :)<br /><br />This tool is a great idea, however, as it allows some visibility for print above and below the line being read to help train the eye to see what is in focus within the context of the page. I wish I had thought of this! I may get one for her even now!!Katrinkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12809805272432812002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-60293941157561250262011-01-07T22:15:47.669-05:002011-01-07T22:15:47.669-05:00I liked these, too - especially for my son who has...I liked these, too - especially for my son who has had eye surgeries.<br /><br />We use that text for reading, too!
