National Vision and Learning Month

Vision and Learning Month 2019

Picture
Picture
Mayor Mark Chandler proclaimed August to be Children’s Vision and Learning Month in the City of Lodi during the August 7 City Council Meeting. Dr. Bill Henshaw, a Lodi optometrist who treats visually related learning problems, was presented the proclamation. This is the 24th year of The National Children’s Vision and Learning Month originating with Dr. Henshaw’s speciality group The College of Optometrists in Vision Development (COVD). COVD is a certification, educational, and advocacy organization of optometrists who specialize in vision therapy. Dr. Henshaw is a charter member.

Then President Bill Clinton was the first signer of the proclamation in 1995. Since then numerous States and cities have signed the proclamation. It is even international today. The purpose is to make the public aware that vision is an essential part of learning. It is timed in August to coordinate with the beginning of the school year.

Dr. Henshaw thanked the council for a step in assuring kid’s vision care will not be ignored in their return to school. He discussed the limit of school vision screening and a simple answer of teacher observation that is currently in CA law. He emphasized a growing concern of Lodi and much of the Nation’s school districts using chrome books that hurt children’s eyes and interfere with learning.


Although the emphasis of vision and learning in August when Lodi kids start school is a great idea, in Dr. Henshaw’s office every month is vision and learning month.  Simply call the office for an appointment at 334-2020.
