What Is Pediatric Eye Care?
Pediatric eye care is specialized care for children and adolescents. At Family Vision Clinic, we focus on preventative health, early detection of vision problems, the management of existing conditions, and more. We can also provide evaluation and treatment of conditions like strabismus (crossed eyes), amblyopia (lazy eye), and other congenital/developmental vision issues. Additionally, our pediatric eye care team can provide your child with eyeglasses, contact lenses, specialized testing and treatments, as well as vision therapy services.
How Can Pediatric Eye Care Help My Child?
Pediatric eye care can help children in many ways. First, we can provide comprehensive eye exams to check for any existing or developing vision problems. These tests help us determine the best course of action for your child and provide an early detection system for future issues. Furthermore, we can prescribe glasses, contact lenses, and other treatments that can help ensure your child's eyesight is as clear and comfortable as possible.
Signs Your Child Needs Help from An Eye Doctor
One of the many signs that your child may need help from an eye doctor is if he has trouble reading or focusing on near objects. If your child has a hard time seeing things up close, it could be due to vision problems like myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness). Additionally, if your child often complains of headaches, blurred vision, or fatigue, these could all be signs that he is struggling to see clearly and need an eye doctor's help.
