It’s no secret that children need to be able to see clearly to do well in school. In the early years of a child’s life, most of what he or she learns is through visual representation. Unfortunately, many kids will go to school in the coming weeks with a compromised vision that can affect their ability to learn. This reason is why it’s imperative to make an appointment with the professionals from Optics&EYECARE. If your child already wears glasses, we can ensure he has the right prescription, and we can check to see if the frames fit properly. Now is the perfect time for the start of school in the coming days.
Children might not be aware that they have a vision problem that is affecting their ability to learn in school. They may experience any of the following symptoms during the day without proper vision correction:
Severe and frequent headaches
Excessive squinting
Rubbing of the eyes
Reduced attention span
Poor performance on assignments or tests
Taking a proactive approach to your child’s vision will help him stay on track at school and feel more confident. Sometimes, something as easy as getting a pair of new glasses can dramatically increase your child’s overall ability to commit to classroom expectations at his particular grade level.
Our team has a large selection of glasses available for children to meet their specific needs. Whether they need scratch-resistant lenses or a more durable frame for after-school activities, we are here to help. We can help kids find a pair of glasses that they’ll enjoy wearing while providing the protection they need.
The beginning of the school year is just around the corner. Make sure you’re doing everything you can to help your children succeed in school.
