It’s crucial to prioritize your child’s eye health with regular eye exams. Early detection and treatment of vision conditions like amblyopia and strabismus by a qualified eyecare professional can have a positive impact on your child’s visual development into adulthood.
The Canadian Association of Optometrists suggests that infants receive their first eye exam between 6 and 9 months old, and then at least once between 2 and 5 years old. For school-age children, annual eye exams are recommended. Make sure to follow these guidelines to ensure your child’s optimal eye health.
