Children’s Eye Health
At Chua Eye Center, we understand the importance of early detection and treatment of eye conditions in children. Proper eye care from a young age can significantly impact a child’s development and quality of life. Our dedicated pediatric eye health services are designed to address common eye problems in children, ensuring they have the best possible vision for learning and play.
Common Child Eye Problems:
- Refractive Error: This occurs when the shape of the eye prevents light from focusing correctly on the retina, leading to blurred vision. Early detection and correction with glasses or contact lenses can help children see clearly and perform better in school and activities.
- Amblyopia: Also known as “lazy eye,” amblyopia happens when vision in one or both eyes does not develop properly during childhood. If left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision problems. Our specialists use various treatments, including corrective lenses, eye patches, and vision therapy, to strengthen the weaker eye.
- Strabismus: Strabismus, or crossed eyes, is a condition where the eyes do not align properly and point in different directions. One eye may look straight ahead while the other turns in, out, up, or down. Early intervention with glasses, exercises, or surgery can help correct the alignment and improve vision.
At Chua Eye Center, our experienced pediatric ophthalmologists use child-friendly techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to diagnose and treat these and other eye conditions. We create a welcoming and comfortable environment for children, helping them feel at ease during their visits.
