It’s better to find out early if your child has a problem with their eyesight. Some conditions can lead to blindness if they’re not treated early.
It’s also important for your child’s learning and development. When children can’t see properly, they may have difficulty with:
- their behaviour
- their concentration and coordination
- things that need distance or close vision like sports or reading.
They may also get sore eyes, headaches and feel tired.
It’s a good idea to have the screening even if your child has had their 4 to 5 year development check. We use a vision screener that can pick up problems (excludes colour blindness) that may be missed in a health check.
