Score Reading Problems, Eye Problems

Hey,

I have always had a severe difficulty to read anything, but this difficulty gets quite a problem when reading mutli-voices scores like a piano/organ, recently I've been asked to read piano pieces which are quite easy to play but I've had very shameful moments, I decided to research in internet and I found this page, after reading (truly slowly like always) I found out it tells about almost all of what I feel when reading.

Esophoria, Reading problems.

Does anyone have this problem too ? I can tell it feels quite bad that other musicians laugh of you like you were an ignorant, of course I know what it means all those signs in the score, just I don't know where exactly am I seeing, the position my eyes focus and the position my attention tries to go are always different. I'll try to make a video to explain.

Does anyone knows if there is method to improve this ? is not a matter of clear/cloudy vision like myopia, I am wearing glasses, is a problem at brain level no eye level.

does this sound familiar to anyone ? I've had this all my life.

See an eye doctor. That will help.

Pray it away.

Vision handicap didn't stop Blind Tom Wiggins, Art Tatum, Derek Paravicini or Rachel Flowers.

stop ? who said stop ? I only said I find very difficult to read scores and people thing I'm making up things.

I mean there are people who have gotten far without sight. Don't be discouraged.

My eyesight/vision is near from perfect. God did not gited me with that. Thus, glasses relaxe my eyes and my mind and I dont  strain them...causing me to have headache later.

I just seen this. Daniel practice sight reading till it becomes reflex then you'll become better reader.

I am going to try with a teacher has some lessons for this, I don't know maybe I can improve this but I doubt it, I've always had difficulty to read anything, not just notes even letters, I often misread things in here that's why I comment wrong sometimes, the point is I don't even know where am I seeing... but I will try something.

I'd say you're going to have to get good at saying, "I'm sorry.  I have Esophoria.  It's a vision problem that affects my sight reading.  Let me take that section again."  And then just move on.  If they are curious they'll ask you about it, but probably they just want to get on with life.  People by now have heard of dyslexia, so the idea of this sort of reading issue shouldn't sound too off the wall to them.  

And as much as possible, send people a note explaining this difficulty and asking if you can get the music early to have a chance to memorize as much as possible or blow it to a very large size and cover it with highlighter.  Whatever helps.  

We've got few older people in my choir who don't see well.  We make large print copies of everything for them.  The woman with the wonderful voice who doesn't read music well finds out what we are singing ahead of time from the director and finds performances on youtube to listen to to get the music in her ear.  No biggie.  We all limp along and it doesn't matter much as long as we plan for it.  Everybody has something wrong with them.  It's how you handle it that matters.
