<p>Pediatrician here. It’s not just another diagnosis. You need THE diagnosis, made by a multidisciplinary team that might include a neuropsych battery of tests, a behavioral or developmental pediatrician, an audiologist, SLP, OT or PT. Probably at his age you just need an excellent neuropsychiatric eval for sure. A diagnosis is your ticket to services via your school. Schools may need a medical diagnosis and/or a DPI (Dept of Public Instruction) diagnosis. Either will get him entry into educational services that he may need. This is, as so many people have tried to tell you, not. about. math. </p>
<p>It is also true that the AAP is very wary of ‘visual convergence’/visual tracking/visual decoding/visual integration disorder diagnoses and visual therapy. In my experience only optometrists have ever made these diagnoses (and coincidentally are the ones selling therapies!), not neurologists or ophthalmologists. </p>
