![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Another joint statement regarding learning disabilities, dyslexia, and vision—A rebuttal Another joint statement regarding learning disabilities, dyslexia, and vision—A rebuttal](/preview/png/2699408.png)
Several medical organizations have published yet another joint statement trivializing vision therapy and vision disorders in the learning-disabled population. A review of the references in the joint statement as well as other references find that the joint statement is misleading because of inappropriate citations and selected references, as was the case with previous joint statements. The most current joint statement ignores the results of evidence-based research and makes recommendations regarding the treatment of convergence insufficiency that have no scientific validity. Ophthalmology should not allow professional rivalry to cloud its judgment regarding optometry's involvement in the diagnosis and treatment of learning-related vision problems.
