Effect of treatment of symptomatic convergence insufficiency on reading in children: a pilot study.Scheiman M1, Chase C2, Borsting E3, Lynn Mitchell G4, Kulp MT4, Cotter SA3; CITT-RS Study Group.Clin Exp Optom. 2018 Mar 25
Conclusion:?After treatment for convergence insufficiency, statistically significant improvements were found for reading comprehension (mean?=?4.2, p?=?0.009) and the reading composite score (mean?=?2.4, p?=?0.016) as measured by the Wechsler Individual Achievement Test at the 24-week visit. These improvements were related to the clinical treatment outcome measures (p?=?0.011) with the largest improvements occurring in those who were early responders to treatment. Reading speed (words per minute) increased significantly on the Gray Oral Reading Test (p?<?0.0001).?
