What Is A Pediatric Eye Exam?
A pediatric eye exam is tailored for young, growing eyes, and uses instruments suited for their age. These exams are similar to our comprehensive eye exams, though they focus on conditions more prevalent in children, such as myopia and binocular vision disorders.
Why Are Pediatric Eye Exams Important?
Childhood years are a critical period for visual development. Comprehensive eye evaluations are crucial for revealing potential vision problems that can prevent proper vision to develop and interfere with learning. It is recommended that every child receive an in-person, eye examination by an eye doctor in their first year of life, again by the age of 3, and right before first grade to check for eye conditions that could have long term effects on vision.
Vision & School Success
As much as 80% of what a child learns in school is acquired through vision. In fact, 1/10 children have an issue with their visual skills that impairs their ability to succeed in school and sports. These small, repeated struggles can negatively impact concentration and confidence. With annual eye exams throughout grade school, many vision and binocular vision problems can be identified before they impact your child’s performance. Don’t wait until reading, seeing the board, or sports performance is a struggle. Schedule and appointment today.
What Is Assessed During A Pediatric Eye Exam?
Your doctor will perform a thorough internal and external eye health evaluation. We will also evaluate visual acuity, eye alignment, eye focusing, depth perception, color perception, and eye tracking.
