Your children's eyesight is invaluable from birth onwards !
In order to give them every chance to protect their vision potential, an early screening test for eye trouble is highly necessary. Late treatment can result in partial or total eyesight loss. Moreover, a quarter of the pupils who fall behind at school in reading suffer from an uncorrected sight disorder. Fortunately, eyesight disorders are not a fatality ! They are easily corrected, providing the following rules are respected.
Consult an optometrist at an early age.
At age 6, children have nearly all their visual abilities : an eyesight exam is thus required before they learn how to read and write..
Good eyesight is an asset to succeeding in school !
- Stimulate your baby's eyesight.
The more they look, the more they learn how to see ! Most of the learning takes place during the first six months. What can you do ? Show them toys or objects with various shapes, colours and contrasts very early. - Watch out for possible behavioural problems and mention them to your eye doctor :
they blink or frown ? It could be due to a visual disorder.
