Pediatric Eye Care:
Giving Your Child the Gift of Healthy Vision

Healthy vision plays a crucial role in your child’s development, from learning in the classroom to playing outside with friends. Yet many vision problems in children can go unnoticed — especially since young children may not realize their vision is different from anyone else’s. That’s why regular pediatric eye exams are so important, even if your child doesn’t complain about their eyesight.

Why Pediatric Eye Exams Matter

Vision issues like nearsightedness, lazy eye (amblyopia), crossed eyes (strabismus), or focusing problems can interfere with learning and development if they’re not caught early. Comprehensive exams check far more than just how well your child can read an eye chart — they evaluate how the eyes work together, how they focus, and whether the eyes are healthy inside and out.

What Happens During a Pediatric Eye Exam?

Dr. Belgrave makes eye exams comfortable and age-appropriate for every child. The exam may include:

 Checking visual clarity (near and far)
 Evaluating eye alignment and focusing ability
 Screening for common childhood eye conditions
 Checking for early signs of diseases that may develop later
