A routine school vision screening can feel like a quick check before recess. For Lucy Nash, it changed everything. As a fifth grader at Sam Houston Elementary, Lucy’s screening with the Maryville Lions flagged something unusual. We sent a note home recommending a follow-up with an ophthalmologist. That appointment led to urgent testing, a specialist referral to UT Hospital, and a diagnosis of hydrocephalus—dangerously high pressure behind the eye.
