Children’s Vision Problems—
What to Look Out For
Monitoring children’s vision health is very important. Even if they are affected by eye conditions, children can think it’s normal and live with the issue. You can help by looking out for common signs and symptoms of an underlying issue:
- Blurry or double-vision (astigmatism)
- Straining
- Eye rubbing
- Complaining of vision fatigue and headaches
- Saying using computers or devices hurts their vision
- Holding a book very close
- Struggling to read
- Sitting too close to the TV
Clear, healthy vision is essential for children to learn, as most educational tools are visual and include reading screens or books.
If your child has difficulty learning to read or write, needs to hold their books or screens very close or far away, or seems unable to focus on distant objects, they may have a condition. Other symptoms might include regular headaches, sore eyes, lack of coordination, or a reluctance to read.
If this is the case, children’s eye tests can determine the problem and provide suitable treatment.
