As a suburban Optometrist performing eye exams every day, you see a lot of normal healthy eyes. And then someone will come along that shakes you up a bit and reminds us all of the value of regular checkups.

An area often overlooked in a child’s overall health and ability to perform well academically is vision. If there are no severe signs of vision problems that are readily detected by your physician, then it’s my opinion that a child should have their first visual examination at three years of age.

More importantly, is the parents’ assumption that their child has no visually related problems because the child has no complaints or their child passed a brief visual screening performed by the school or a non-eyecare professional. These screenings don’t check for eye health nor do they have the sophisticated equipment needed to accurately diagnose your child’s visual condition.

One of my passions is working with children so what I’m about to tell you comes from my heart. Your child may not possess the visual skills necessary to learn effectively. When parents make the determination that their child is seeing properly rather than having a qualified eyecare professional make that determination through proper testing, they may be cheating their child’s academic performance.
