Pediatric Eye Exams

 Eyes require proper care from birth to ensure the best possible vision and eye health throughout life. If you are seeking an eye doctor near you that provides a comprehensive suite of eye care services for your children, Monroe Family Eyecare in Monroe, NY, is the optometry practice for you. Clear vision dramatically improves a person's ability to live a happy and fulfilling life.

Childhood and Adolescent Eye Exams 

Our optometrists can perform eye exams on infants beginning at about six months of age to help ensure a lifetime of sharp vision. By assessing the eyes at such an early age, we establish a diagnostic starting point that serves as a baseline for vision development throughout childhood and into adulthood. Some children may require eye exercises recommended by our optometrists to help maintain good vision as they grow and develop.

Corrective Lenses to Sharpen Vision 

Blurry vision can significantly affect the way children learn. With a comprehensive eye exam, we can recommend appropriate solutions, such as high-definition framed lenses or contacts when a child is old enough to perform the daily contact insertion procedure adequately. Our family eye care services provide the most effective corrective measures tailored to each developmental stage. Virtually everyone can enjoy 20/20 vision with the right lenses. It is important to note that LASIK surgery is only available for adults with fully developed eyes and sufficient corneal tissue to fine-tune the focal point.

Get Sports Vision Protection 

Participating in sports is an excellent way for children to develop physically. Many children need special eyewear to participate in their favorite activities safely. We can recommend the most appropriate lenses and protective eyewear to help protect your child's eyes and enhance their sports vision, whether through prescription eyeglasses or contacts that will maximize their performance potential.
