Service FAQs
Answer: Children should have their first comprehensive eye exam at six months of age. After that, they should have their eyes examined at age three and just before they enter first grade. These early checks are crucial because many vision problems are easier to correct when detected during the primary stages of development. At Optica, we specialize in making these early visits fun and stress-free for both the children and their parents.
Answer: Parents should watch for signs like frequent eye rubbing, extreme light sensitivity, or poor focusing. Other red flags include squinting, tilting the head to see better, or sitting too close to the television. If your child complains of headaches after reading or shows a sudden drop in school performance, it might be time for a professional checkup. Early detection at Optica helps ensure that visual obstacles do not hinder their learning.
Answer: Excessive screen time can lead to digital eye strain and may increase the risk of developing myopia in children. The blue light emitted by devices can also disrupt sleep patterns, which is vital for overall growth. We recommend following the 20-20-20 rule: every twenty minutes, look at something twenty feet away for twenty seconds. Our team provides personalized advice on managing digital habits to keep your child's developing eyes very healthy.
