    Guest: Erick D. Bothun, M.D.

    It’s estimated that more than 1 in 20 preschool-age children and 1 in 4 school-age children have a vision disorder. Since the eyes are the source of sensory input for much of the learning that takes place in our children, these statistics take on real importance. Vision problems in childhood can result in developmental delays and are often misdiagnosed as learning disabilities. As adults, we’re aware of changes and problems with our vision. Children who have never known clear vision may not realize their vision is impaired. What are the most common eye disorders in children? How many of our pre-school children are receiving vision screening? What are common signs a child may have a vision impairment? These are just some of the questions I’ll asking my guest, Erick D. Bothun, M.D., from the Department of Ophthalmology at the Mayo Clinic. As part of our “Back to School” Series, we’ll be discussing “Pediatric and Adolescent Ophthalmologic Concerns”.
