Pediatric Refraction
Who this is for:
Squinting, sitting too close to screens, or reading difficulty
Headaches or eye rubbing
Suspected “lazy eye,” strabismus, or unequal prescriptions
Failed school screening
Family history of high myopia or significant astigmatism
What to expect:
Assessment: age-appropriate vision testing and eye alignment checks
Refraction: accurate measurement (including cycloplegic refraction when indicated)
Plan: glasses prescription, monitoring schedule, and guidance for parents
Children may not complain of blur even when vision is reduced. Pediatric refraction helps detect refractive errors early and supports proper visual development and school performance.
