Helping Your Child Succeed in School

Nine years ago, my younger sister excitedly enrolled in college. When she saw how large the classrooms were at her school of choice, she knew what she had to do. Because she’d struggled to see the whiteboard in her high school classrooms, my sibling made an appointment with a respected optician in her hometown. This medical professional informed my sister she had a severe astigmatism. Thankfully, my sibling was prescribed a pair of prescription eyeglasses to help her see clearly.
