Why a Childrens Eye Test Matters
Booking a childrens eye test is one of the most important things you can do to support your child’s development. At Paine and Hunter Opticians, we specialise in children’s eye care, offering gentle and thorough exams designed for younger patients.
Vision problems in children often go unnoticed. A comprehensive childrens eye test can detect issues early, helping avoid difficulties in school and beyond. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve a child’s confidence and learning.
When Should Children Have Their First Eye Test?
The Right Age to Start Eye Tests
Experts recommend that children have their first eye test at around the age of four, or sooner if you notice signs of vision problems. Paine and Hunter offers eye exams suitable for children of all ages, tailored to their developmental stage.
Common Signs Your Child May Need an Eye Test
- Squinting or covering one eye
- Sitting too close to screens
- Complaints of headaches or tired eyes
- Difficulty with reading or concentration
