Reading your post seems so logical, I know. Somehow, when the university questions me, it made me question myself.

The neuropsych was the first to identify my vision issues. He said that a lot of the testing relied on having stable vision, and until I had one, he couldn't reliably test me with accurate results.

I suppose I could take the test and that in itself would prove the point.

Thanks for the reassurance. I feel like I have gone down the rabbit hole.
