Paediatric Refractive Errors Evaluation & Treatment

Children, unlike adults, need special care and attention when it comes to eye examination or dealing with an eye condition.

 

Every child should undergo a comprehensive eye examination at least before they get enrolled in a school. There are conditions such as Refractive Error and Amblyopia which can go unnoticed if not tested for specifically at a very early age. Young children who are under the age of 5 years are vulnerable to these kinds of problems as they cannot express themselves. Hence periodic eye check-up is advisable for this age group. It becomes even more essential for children to undergo early screening if they have a family history of having some eye problems.

Doctor at Supriya Eye Hospital identifies and treats children of all age groups having refractive errors and prescribes glasses and follows at regular intervals.
