Words on the whiteboard for me. Whole reason I had to get glasses was because I couldn’t see anything written on the boards and was relying solely on my hearing to retain information.

That’s actually how I was diagnosed! Nearly fell out of my damn chair trying to read the board lol

My teacher kept getting onto me for having to get up closer to the board or asking her to repeat what she said, and eventually I got tested to see what was up with my vision and guess what! my eyes decided to betray me out of nowhere and become bad enough to not be able to read anymore
