Pediatric eye examinations are specialized services focused on the visual needs and health of children and are crucial for detecting and addressing any vision problems during a child’s developmental years. An optometrist conducts age-appropriate tests to assess visual acuity, eye alignment, and overall eye health, ensuring the child’s vision is developing correctly.
Early detection and treatment of common pediatric eye conditions, such as amblyopia (lazy eye) or strabismus (crossed eyes), are vital. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent long-term vision problems and support the child’s overall development, including their academic and social growth.
