A new study provides the first clear evidence that vision or eye problems are rarely the cause of recurring headaches in children, even if the headaches usually strike while the child is doing schoolwork or other visual tasks. Many parents assume that frequent headaches mean their child needs glasses, so they ask their doctor to refer their child for an eye exam. This study was conducted by pediatric ophthalmologists at Albany Medical Center who wanted to find reliable answers for parents, family doctors and pediatricians facing this common health question.To see more details visit,www.healthcanal.com
