Children’s Eye Exams

Protect Their Future

Because children cannot always articulate – or may not even be aware of – their vision problems, it’s extremely important to have their eyes examined regularly by an optometrist.

InfantSEE®

We are proud to be a member of the American Optometric Association (AOA) and to be enrolled as InfantSEE® providers. This is a one-time service which offers early detection of potential eye and vision problems to infants at no cost, regardless of income or ability to pay.

According to new data collected by the AOA, there is a growing need for early vision examination in infants. Parents may learn more about the importance of infant vision care and the InfantSEE® program by logging on to www.infantsee.org, or by contacting us.

Signs of a Vision Problem

Even if your child has 20/20 vision, they may be experiencing serious problems if their visual system is not functioning correctly. This might mean they have trouble with things like eye teaming or even a learning disability, such as dyslexia.

Your child may have a vision problem if they:

• Consistently confuse left and right, regardless of correction.
• Seem clumsy and/or have poor hand-eye coordination.
• Often squint or blink frequently.
• Have a hard time remembering, identifying, and reproducing shapes.
• Rub their eyes during or after short periods of activity requiring up-close focus
• Have various issues with reading
• Complain of nausea, dizziness, and motion sickness
• Complain of headaches
• Move their head rather than eyes when watching something
