By Myrtice R. Rippin


Many of us may remember our first trip to the doctor as the most traumatic experience, but with a pediatric eye exam Montgomery, young patients soon feel at ease with the personal care and understanding they receive. By giving the time and attention to each patient, a pediatric eye exams Montgomery is definitely a favorite among families.

Often parents procrastinate or are not aware that children should be having their initial eye examination within the first year, ideally any time after 6 months. Even if there are not any obvious issues, a youngster should be checked at that time for any congenital defects or other conditions that if not found early in life can be more difficult and costly to correct later. The clinic regards this initial test as being so important that there is absolutely no charge for the first pediatric eye exam Montgomery, regardless of a family's income. In this examination, the infant will be tested for farsighted and nearsightedness, astigmatism, eye movement ability and any ocular health problems so that on the off chance a condition is detected, early treatment can be provided with a higher total success rate than if performed later.

When a child reaches 3 to 5 years old, the next pediatric eye exam Montgomery should be made as statistics show 10 per cent of this age group needs corrective eyewear or treatment. Certain behavior that parents should be aware of which could indicate ocular irregularities is an inward or outward turning eye, tilting of the head, eye-hand-body coordination when riding a bike or playing ball, light sensitivity, avoiding coloring activities or other detailed tasks, squinting and being too close to the TV or holding books near the face. Studies have shown that 80 per cent of a child's initial learning comes from seeing which also increases the importance of having good sight.

Once a child enters school, eye tests should be scheduled every year as 25 per cent of school children need a correction in their vision through eyewear mostly. Despite the relatively high incidence of the need for corrective methods, the symptoms are sometimes mistaken for a learning disability that may definitely not be the case.

The caring and patient attitude during a pediatric eye exam Montgomery has also made the clinic very popular with special needs patients, and your business is definitely welcome.
