Your Child's Vision
Cambridge Eyecare prides itself in creating a child-friendly atmosphere. We enjoy providing eye care to children and recommend an initial assessment by 3 years of age or sooner if you have concerns about your child's vision or there is a family history of an ocular condition.
80% of a children's learning is based on vision and 1 in 6 school-aged children experience learning difficulties which are a result of unknown or uncorrected vision conditions. Typically a children's eye examination is enjoyable and we adapt the exam based on your children's age and capabilities. Your child does not need to know their letters to have a thorough assessment! We do colorimetric eye test to assess visual confusion and dyslexia.
If your child has an eye turn (strabismus), weak eye (amblyopia), requires a prescription, or has an eye health concern. On occasion, eye drops need to be used to better determine if glasses are required or to rule out an ocular health condition. If the Optometrist recommends eye drops, this will be discussed in depth with the parent so that all questions are addressed.
Our Eyewear Boutique has an excellent selection of children's glasses. These frames are durable and we always use an impact resistant lens to suit a children's active lifestyle. We stand by our eyewear with a one & two-year frame and lens warranty.
