Why Does My Child Needs Regular Eye Examinations?

Parents are advised to take their child for regular eye examinations. But our eye specialists at Bansal Global Hospital raised this concern that parents often question why they need to do so when the child seems all fine.

Well, firstly, there’s a difference between what seems to be fine and what’ actually fine. Secondly, children can’t judge their health for themselves. Since they are young, they don’t know if something is wrong until it is physically uncomfortable or painful.

For example, adults are fully capable of detecting if they aren’t able to see something clearly at a distance. But a child can’t comprehend it. He will just assume that’s it is far away so maybe he isn’t supposed to see it clearly.

A regular check up ensures that your child’s eyes are working fine. Moreover, if your child has short sightedness (more common among children) and he isn’t provided with corrective lenses for a time period, the condition can worsen.

So, you must fix a gap of 6 months and take your growing child to the ophthalmologist for a regular eye check up.

You can book an appointment at Bansal Global Hospital to get the best eye care facilities with latest technologies and corrective techniques.
