The American Optometric Association recommends regular eye exams throughout childhood to support healthy vision and development. While children may benefit from eye care earlier in life, The Eye Care Team provides comprehensive children’s eye exams for patients ages 5 and up.
- Ages 6 to 12 months: A comprehensive baseline eye exam is recommended.
- Ages 3 to 5 years: At least one comprehensive eye exam is recommended to check for vision or eye health concerns that could affect long-term development.
- Age 5 and up: Children should have comprehensive eye exams regularly, with annual exams recommended once they begin school.
If your child is 5 or older, our team can assess their vision and eye health and identify concerns that may affect their ability to learn, play, and see comfortably.
