When Should Children Have Their First Eye Exam?

Your child’s vision is important. In order to learn and grow successfully, kids need their vision to be as near perfect as possible. At Antelope Valley Eye Care, we recommend that children have their first eye exam by their third birthday. Though most children won’t experience eye problems, for those who do, it’s important to diagnose and treat these issues in a timely manner. That way, they can get back to important tasks like building block towers and learning to read!

Our eye care services are comprehensive and include diagnostic exams, treatment of eye injuries, and even outpatient surgical procedures. We also treat common eye problems in children such as strabismus (crossed eyes), amblyopia (lazy eye), and refractive error, for instance.

Plus, we use state-of-the-art equipment and advanced eye care technology to ensure your child receives the best vision care possible. It’s the AV Eye Care guarantee!

That’s the highest compliment we could receive here at AV Eye Care.
