Children’s Vision Testing

As all of our optometrists are mothers themselves, Valery, Liza and Julia understand the importance of children’s vision testing and of testing in a nurturing, caring and fun environment.

Vision is often considered the most important sense when it comes to learning; and more than 80% of all school tasks are based on vision. Vision is the key to a child’s whole development. Not only school achievement, but also personality, posture and adjustment to life are closely integrated with vision development.

Comprehensive vision assessment for children involves testing and evaluating:

Distance and near visual acuity

Health of the eye and clarity of vision

Binocular eye movements

Coordination stereopsis (ability to see 3d)

Colour vision

Accommodation and convergence (focusing skills)

Regular children’s vision assessments are very important for early detection and treatment of eye problems. These include; turned eye (strabismus), amblyopia (lazy eye), high prescriptions and focusing ability. All these conditions can hinder the child’s visual development, performance at school and their confidence to interpret their environment.
