VISION FOR THE
LITTLE VISIONARIES

DID YOU KNOW

Did you know that children should have their first eye examination as early as 3 years old and subsequently at every 6 months? As they are developing as a person, so does their vision! It helps them to recognise family faces, familiarise different places, and cultivate learning interest from visual stimulus. Seeing clearly plays a determining role for their personal development.

Children with poor eyesight may exhibit behavior change, and it may be difficult for them to verbally explain their frustrations. Conditions such as lazy eye (amblyopia) or squint eye (strabismus) can occur in young ones, and are treated more effectively when detected early.
