Annual eye examinations will help manage and maintain optimum eye health

Hyperopia

Hyperopia is a common vision condition in adults. People with hyperopia must squint to see nearby objects. Reading, writing, computer work, or drawing for long periods of time may cause eye strain and headache. Treatment options include eyeglasses, contact lenses, and surgery such as LASIK.

Myopia

Otherwise known as nearsightedness, is a condition where objects up close appear clearly, while objects far away appear blurry, you might squint or frown when trying to see distant objects clearly. Myopia is a condition that can easily be managed with prescription glasses.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism is a common vision problem caused by an error in the shape of the cornea. With astigmatism, the lens of the eye or the cornea, which is the front surface of the eye, has an irregular curve. This can change the way light passes, or refracts, to your retina. This causes blurry, fuzzy, or distorted vision

Color Blindness

Color vision deficiency, or color blindness, occurs when you are unable to see colors in a normal way. It is usually genetic and occurs in boys more than girls. Color blindness often happens when someone cannot distinguish between certain colors. This usually happens between greens and reds, and occasionally blues. By 5 years old your child should easily identify colors rather quickly. If you believe your child might have a color vision deficiency, schedule a consultation with one of our doctors

Clues your child might have a color deficiency
Using the wrong colors e.g. when painting or drawing
Difficulty identifying red or green colored pencils or pens
