Before kindergarten, then before every school year. Sooner if you notice squinting, sitting too close to screens, head tilting, eye rubbing, or slipping grades in a kid who used to love reading.
Visual acuity at distance and near, focusing and eye-teaming skills, depth perception, color vision, and full ocular health. School screenings catch a fraction of what a comprehensive pediatric exam does.
Kids' prescriptions change as they grow — that's normal. We track the changes year over year, keep the lenses current, and make sure the frames still fit a face that's growing too.
Durable, flexible kids' frames that fit properly and come back for free adjustments as often as needed — which, with kids, is often.
