FAQ
It is recommended that children have their first comprehensive eye exam at six months of age, followed by additional exams at age three and before starting school. Regular eye exams should continue throughout childhood to monitor and maintain eye health.
Signs of vision problems in children include frequent squinting, sitting too close to the TV, holding books too close, difficulty reading, complaining of headaches or eye strain, and noticeable eye misalignment. If you observe any of these signs, schedule an eye exam for your child.
Strabismus, or crossed eyes, can be caused by muscle imbalances, genetic factors, or refractive errors. Treatment options include corrective glasses, prism lenses, eye exercises, and, in some cases, surgery to realign the eye muscles.
Vision therapy is a customized program of exercises and activities designed to improve visual skills and processing. It can help children with conditions such as amblyopia, strabismus, and convergence insufficiency by enhancing their visual function and coordination.
