A common misconception parents have is that a vision
screening at their child’s school and/or a vision check at the
Pediatrician’s office is the same as an eye exam.
Most of the parents think that Vision
Screening and Eye Exam are same but they are not same thing because Vision Screenings are vision tests that are designed
to ONLY check to see if a child is able to read the eye chart.They do not
check for visual development problems or eye health issues.
Your child should have an eye exam at ANY age if a problem is
suspected. An eye examination can be performed on an infant, as young as one
day old. It is essential that your child has an eye exam by an EYE DOCTOR at
least by age 4 or 5
– before entering kindergarten. Many forms of blindness or lazy eye
(amblyopia) can be prevented if detected early AND corrected.
