When a child can't see well, it can affect many aspects of their education. Before the school year starts, your child needs a full eye exam to ensure that they are seeing clearly. Back-to-school eye exams also allow our eye doctor to diagnose and treat any vision problems your child is suffering from. 

Vision Problems at School

When a child has an uncorrected vision problem at school, the child’s ability to learn is negatively impacted. They are likely to have problems seeing the board at the front of the class. They may also have trouble seeing the teacher, and this can lead to similar problems. Kids may also have trouble reading and doing other tasks in the classroom. 

Back to School 

There are a lot of things that have to be ready for the new year. Getting a full eye exam should be a part of this yearly tradition. This allows them to begin the year with the proper amount of vision correction needed to see everything. An old prescription can lead to difficulty seeing, as well as headaches and eye strain.
