Did you know that 80% of your child’s learning is visual? With that, it is important to have children eye exams early and on a frequent basis.
Does your child complain about not being able to see their homework or words written on their classroom’s blackboard? Do you often see them squinting their eyes or struggling to see? These are some indicators that it may be time for a comprehensive eye exam. In fact, children often exhibit several signs that show they may be having a hard time seeing. For example, some common signs include:
- Covering one eye with their hand
- Holding books or screens really close to their face
- Having a short attention span
- Frequently complaining about headaches or nausea
Other reasons you should schedule an eye exam:
- Your child failed a vision screening test
- Your child is
It is recommended that your child has their first eye exam at 6 months, 3 years and just before they start school. From there, they should have an annual check-up to ensure proper eye health and vision.
Between the ages of 6 to 18, your child’s eyes can change in a frequent and unexpected manner. If these vision problems are left untreated they can:
- Impair development
- Impede learning
- Lead to permanent vision damage
- Cause behavioral problems
We strongly believe in early prevention of eye disorders that can affect your child’s development. More than 5% of children have a vision problem that can cause permanent damage if left untreated. Regular eye care is essential even when your child does not show signs of eye trouble.
In the event that your child does need prescription eyewear, your child will have a wide variety of glasses to choose from at our optical. Book an exam today with Dr. Brian Damman or Dr. I. Khan and we will ensure that your child’s first experience with glasses is a positive one.
