VISION AND HEARING
|
Vision disorders are the fourth most common disability among children in the United States and the leading cause of impaired conditions in childhood. Recent studies estimate that only 21% of all preschool children are screened for vision problems and only 14% receive a comprehensive vision exam.
Hearing loss is the most common congenital condition in the United States. Every day, 33 infants are born with some degree of hearing loss.
