I'll try to keep this as brief as possible, my DD (aged 12) has dyspraxia, tourettes and is borderline AS. Shortly before the end of last term, she started complaining of vision problems.Optometrist detected part of visual field seemed to be lacking. In addition DD is complaining of blurring. Nothing the optometrist did could improve her vision. She has been really struggling at school - they have been helpful but it difficult to get the right help when they and we don't really know what the problem is and how best to help. She is currently not able to read, cant use computer, manages maybe 30 mins max of TV by sitting a couple of inches away from it and afterwards her eyes hurt. She seems to be able to see outlines but not any detail of anything. She has managed one day a week at school for the last two as it has completely taken it out of her, trying to concentrate and not really being able to see what is going on. She had a CT scan on Friday which is clear (our biggest worry). The paediatrican is now waiting for blood tests to come back before deciding where we should go next, but all this takes so much time, she is bored ..all she can really do is listen to music and audio books. I am finally coming to the question here ..should I send DD to school tomorrow (assuming it's open) and then talk to them about things (they already know) or should I talk to them first, saying I want her to be at school but I dont know if she can cope... for example, first lesson is ict ..if she manages to see anything on the screen, it will wipe her out for the rest of the day. I'm not sure she is able to access the curriculum at all which she obviously has a right to and actually wants to, but I feel stuck until we have reasons why she is suffering like this. Any suggestions, help please ..I'm desperate.
