Pediatric Ophthalmology

Our center is well equipped to provide full range of eye diseases affecting new-borns, toddlers and school age children.

We offer medical and surgical treatment of genetic ocular abnormalities and serious eye diseases before a patient reaches adulthood.

For appropriate learning a good vision is very important. Study shows more than 80% of what your child is taught in school is presented to them visually.

To make sure your child has the visual skills they need for school, the first step is to ensure they have 20/20 eyesight and that any nearsightedness, farsightedness and/or astigmatism is fully corrected.

Dose your child have one or more of the following signs and symptoms of learning-related vision disorders?

• Blurred distance or near vision, particularly after reading or other close work
• Frequent headaches or eye strain
• Difficulty changing focus from distance to near and back
• Double vision, especially during or after reading
• Avoidance of reading
• Easily distracted when reading
• Poor reading comprehension
• Loss of place, repetition, and/or omission of words while reading
• Letter and word reversals
• Poor handwriting
• Hyperactivity or impulsiveness during class
• Poor overall school performance

If your child exhibits one or more of these signs or symptoms and is having problems in school, call us to schedule a comprehensive children’s vision exam.
