20 / 20 Sight and Style Behavioural Optometrist

20/20 Sight’n’Style are formally qualified Behavioural Optometrists who provide thorough testing and treatment for the visual associations of learning disabilities.

Suzanne and George Sahely together bring over 40 years of experience helping children develop efficient visual systems. They hold Fellowship of the College of Optometrists in Visual Development and Fellowship of The Australasian College of Behavioural Optometrists.

Behavioural Optometrists do not “treat” Dyslexia, though serve to maximise visual skills. A thorough assessment of eyesight, eye health, functional visual development and visual cognitive (“processing”) development is recommended when the following signs and symptoms are present…

Sore/tired eyes
Regular Headaches
Blurry or “fuzzy” vision
Discomfort when reading
Losing place on the page
Losses concentration quickly
Difficulty copying from the board
Skipping/repeating words when reading
Confusing/reversing letters and numbers
Has to read the same text more than once to make sense
A “bright” child in many areas, but just not achieving at school

Improving the efficiency of the visual system is a vital part of the overall management for a child experiencing learning difficulties.
