Is mixing up the letter 'l' and the letter 't' something to worry about?

Not sure if this is the correct topic. DD has not been diagnosed with SN but she is only 7 (yr 2). DH is dyslexic.

I've noticed DD still mixing up her l's and her t's in words, reading a word in a t or l as the other letter. I've asked if the letters are fuzzy and she should wear her glasses but she insists that she can see fine, it's just that she finds it hard to concentrate on those letters.

She read a little late, especially for being one of the oldest in the class, but she IS reading now. And her spelling is going well, too, only as of the last month or so.

We just still have massive problems with eating and sleeping, too, and part of me wonders if there is a SN??

My DS has visual problems and often gets these letters confused, especially with certain fonts. I don't have any experience of other SN but would bare in mind the possibility that this is linked to not seeing the cross on the t.
