Children’s Eye Exams
Children’s eye exams are essential for ensuring healthy vision and proper development. Our optometrists provide gentle, age-appropriate testing to make the experience comfortable and stress-free. Regular eye exams help catch potential problems early, supporting your child’s learning and overall development.
Why Choose Us?
Dr. Khatri has specialized training in Pediatric Optometry and Vision Therapy, and with two young children of her own, she understands how to make eye exams fun and engaging for kids without compromising on results. Our friendly staff ensures that your child’s eye exam is a positive experience, helping them feel comfortable and at ease.
During a pediatric eye exam, we’ll review your child’s health history, developmental milestones, and school performance. Our tests assess not just vision, but also eye coordination, focusing abilities, and tracking skills—critical components for learning and development. If we detect any issues, we may recommend a follow-up binocular vision assessment to diagnose conditions like:
- Accommodative Insufficiency
- Convergence Insufficiency
- Strabismus
- Amblyopia (lazy eye)
Dr. Khatri will create a tailored treatment plan to address your child’s specific needs. Call us today to schedule an eye exam for your child.
