About this listen

Reading struggles in children often mask a surprisingly simple issue that goes undetected by standard eye exams. In this eye-opening conversation, Leah Stine of Vision Reading Academy shares the transformative approach that's helping children overcome reading difficulties by addressing eye muscle coordination problems rather than assuming learning disabilities.

Leah reveals how each eye contains seven muscles—meaning 14 total muscles must work in perfect harmony for smooth reading. When they don't, children experience tremendous difficulty that traditional interventions can't fix. "My son went from kindergarten reading level to sixth grade reading level in just five months," Leah explains, describing her own journey from desperate parent to academy coach after witnessing her son's remarkable transformation.

The signs of these vision-related reading challenges manifest in various ways: letter reversals, irregular writing, skipping lines, repeating passages without comprehension, or context-filling (making up content while reading). Most poignantly, Leah shares the emotional impact these difficulties have on children's self-esteem. "We get the broken kids," she notes, describing students who've been beaten down by years of unexplained struggle. The program's holistic approach incorporates specialized exercises, pressure points, and reading drills that permanently train the eyes to work properly together—no ongoing therapy required.

Parents who suspect their child might benefit can receive free assessments where they can literally see their child's eye coordination issues firsthand. While some medical professionals remain skeptical, the results speak for themselves—like the student who, after beginning to read independently, excitedly grabbed birthday cards announcing, "Let me read your card!"
