Summary

This study looks at whether inner-ear balance problems (vestibular loss) make it harder for children with hearing loss to learn to read. Researchers will test 90 children's vision during head movement and their reading skills. The goal is to understand if balance issues are an overlooked cause of reading difficulties, so doctors can better identify and treat these children.
