Reading requires far more than clear eyesight. It depends on precise eye tracking, strong eye teaming, flexible focusing, and efficient visual processing so the brain can decode, understand, and remember what’s read. When these visual skills aren’t functioning well, reading becomes tiring and comprehension suffers. The good news is that these skills can be objectively measured, trained, and improved—often leading to significant gains in reading performance.

• Reading relies on multiple visual skills
• Visual fatigue affects retention
• Training can improve reading efficiency
