ADHD is referred to Hyper activeness and impulsiveness in kids. The symptoms may start to become noticeable at the age of 3 at the earliest and mostly are identified by the age of 12. ADHD can be mild, moderate or severe depending on behavioural traits of a child.

Some signs which are mostly present in identifying a child with ADHD are:

  • Short attention span
  • Unable to focus or concentrate
  • Excessive physical movement (most of the time runs, jumping or climbing, etc.)
  • Less patience in terms of waiting for their turn
  • Interrupting in between conversations

If a child is diagnosed with ADHD, it’s a bit surprising to know that ADHD has many of the similar symptoms like that of a functional vision problem.

 

Luckily, functional vision problems are noticeable, detected and are treatable. If a functional vision problem is the real basis of the child’s struggle with attention, there may be no need for ADHD treatments.


This is the primary reason why a functional vision problem should be ruled out first for any child who is showing signs and symptoms of an attention problem.

On a clear note: A child may have a vision problem. They &rsduo;may&rsduo; have ADHD. They may have both! But the first step to determine what’s wrong so you can treat them correctly is to schedule a functional vision exam.
