Healthy Vision Starts in Childhood
Paediatric Ophthalmology
Paediatric Ophthalmology is a specialised area of eye care that focuses on diagnosing and treating eye conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. Since vision development plays an important role in a child’s learning, growth, and overall development, early eye examinations are essential.
Children may experience eye conditions such as vision problems, eye alignment issues, or other developmental concerns that may not always be easily noticed. Early detection and timely care can help support healthy vision development and prevent long term complications.
Common Symptoms
Children may not always communicate vision difficulties clearly. Parents should be aware of signs that may indicate the need for an eye examination, including:
Frequent eye rubbing
Squinting or closing one eye to see better
Difficulty focusing on objects
Sitting too close to screens or books
Headaches or eye strain
Poor performance in school activities
Misalignment of the eyes
Excessive watering of the eyes
If any of these signs are noticed, an eye evaluation can help identify the cause and provide timely care.
