Pediatric Eye Care

Our Service

Healthy Vision Starts Young

A child’s eyesight is the foundation for learning, play, and growth. At See You Eyecare we provide thorough, gentle pediatric eye exams to detect concerns early and support healthy vision at every stage of development.

Why Pediatric Eye Care Matters

Children’s eyes develop rapidly and vision impacts nearly every part of their growth. Detecting and treating vision issues early gives your child the best chance for academic success, confidence, and overall well-being.

  • Vision problems may interfere with reading, writing, and classroom performance.

  • Conditions such as lazy eye, crossed eyes, or uncorrected refractive errors can affect development if not treated early.

  • Early intervention is highly effective since children’s eyes are adaptable and responsive to treatment.

Eye Exam Schedule and What to Expect

For kids 7 and older, exams are designed to be comfortable, thorough, and age-appropriate.

  • Recommended schedule: every year, or more often if your child already wears glasses, has vision concerns, or has a family history of eye conditions.

  • Exam process: visual acuity testing for distance and near vision, assessment of eye coordination and alignment, a health check of the internal and external eye structures, and screening for common childhood conditions.

  • Parent involvement: we review family history, school performance, and any symptoms like squinting, headaches, or difficulty concentrating.

Treatment Options and Vision Support

If concerns are identified, we provide a full range of treatment options designed for children’s needs and comfort.

  • Prescription glasses built for durability and active play.
  • Contact lenses for older children when appropriate.
  • Vision therapy programs to strengthen focus, tracking, and coordination.
  • Patching therapy for lazy eye.
  • Myopia control strategies to slow the progression of nearsightedness.

We see children starting at age 7. Younger children should be seen by a pediatric optometrist who specializes in early visual development.

Once a year, or more often if they wear glasses, have vision concerns, or if their optometrist recommends it.

If your child complains of blurred or double vision, has frequent headaches, squints, covers one eye, or struggles to keep up in school, it is a good idea to schedule an appointment.
