Expert Eye Doctor Dr. Paul Lederer, FCOVD speaks about ADD or ADHD and Vision Attention. He explains that many symptoms & behaviors that are attributed to a diagnosis of ADHD are actually due to treatable visual problems related to eye muscle disorders, such as Convergence Insufficiency, poor eye tracking, eye teaming or binocular vision problems, etc. Dr. Lederer explains what the symptoms of these types of vision problems are and what types of behaviors they can cause that can be misdiagnosed as ADD or ADHD. Dr. Lederer says, that many children are being misdiagnosed as ADD or ADHD when they actually have one or several of these very treatable eye problems. The best treatment is non-surgical vision therapy, not glasses or eye surgery or medications. Dr. Paul Lederer is an expert on the subject of Vision and Attention. He practices with Dr. Neil Margolis at the Visual Symptoms Treatment Center in Arlington Heights, IL.
