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. I feel it is imperative that children should not enter kindergarten without having a complete visual examination.

As rare as it is, eye diseases do occur in children and could go undetected and untreated without prior diagnosis. 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.

For many people, reading is a joy that knows no bounds but for people who stuffer from low vision, reading creates new challenges that hinder their ability to read.
