This episode with Wellness Mama’s very own Katie Wells is a must-listen for anyone who suspects they have vision problems or anybody wanting to make sure they’ve considered their kids vision!
Dr. Bryce and Katie dive into the concept that vision and eyesight actually aren’t the same thing. Vision refers to our brain’s ability to communicate with our eyes and things like too much screen time, early reading, and concussions can all affect our eye’s ability to see.
We talk about the rise of vision problems since Covid, after everyone’s screen time took a huge jump.
