The vision of children

Sight is a crucial sense for your child's development and learning. Knowing how their vision develops and how to protect it is therefore essential for their long-term health.

VISION DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN:

Your child's vision begins to develop at birth and continues until the age of seven.

Babies can see objects within inches of their face and then begin to distinguish colors and shapes and then follow moving objects. From six months, their vision should be developed enough to see clearly at a distance of several meters.

It is important to monitor their vision throughout childhood, as vision problems can develop at any time.

SIGNS OF EYESIGHT PROBLEMS IN CHILDREN:

It is important to know how to spot the signs of vision problems in your child. The most common signs are:

• Eye rubbing
• Frequent blinks
• Head turning to see objects
• Red, watery, or swollen eyes
• Difficulty reading, writing, or seeing the blackboard in school

If you notice any of these signs in your child, see an optician for an eye evaluation.

HOW TO HELP YOUR CHILD PROTECT HIS SIGHT:

There are several things you can do to help your child protect their eyesight:

• Have their sight checked regularly by an ophthalmologist
• Make sure their environment is well lit
• Encourage them to take frequent breaks when reading or using screens
• Encourage them to play outside to promote distance vision

Your child's vision is an important part of their health. It is therefore essential to know how to protect their sight from an early age. At Atelier Lou Paris , our goal is to support you in protecting your child's eyesight. Contact us today to schedule an eye exam.
