When a child has trouble reading something or finds focusing on a screen uncomfortable, they probably won’t (or can’t) tell you about it. In fact, they may not even know there’s a problem. Children’s eye exams give our doctors a chance to review your child’s visual health and developing eyes.
Our optometrists at The Eye Care Team are specialists in children’s eye health, and they bring decades of eye care experience to every exam. If your child is having trouble with their visual acuity or general eye health, we will find and address the problem.
According to the American Optometric Association, children should have a regulated eye exam schedule beginning in infancy. Follow these guidelines to help your child develop healthy vision.
As children age, their exam requirements can vary dramatically. With a teenager, you can discuss the problems they are experiencing, whereas this must be fully diagnosed through testing with an infant. Here are some signs that may indicate vision problems.
Eye exams are fascinating, and many children get excited once they know that. We use our advanced imaging equipment to assess your child’s eye health and visual acuity. These processes are all non-invasive, and the entire exam should be over inside of an hour.
The Eye Care Team optometrists always find a way to make your child feel comfortable and at ease. Our exams are never rushed, and we always have time to help your children feel relaxed during the testing process.
