As per medicaid.gov website about a quarter of all school-aged children have a significant vision problem, and two to three out of every 1,000 children are born with hearing impairments, which can range from mild to profound. Many more children develop hearing problems after birth. If we suspect that a child has a vision or hearing problem, the child should receive further evaluation and necessary treatment. Please visit the Medicaid.gov to learn why Vision and Hearing Screenings and services so important.
