As parents and caregivers, we spend countless hours nurturing our children’s growth, learning, and happiness, but how often do we think about their eyes? Vision is critical to a child’s development—from reading to learning in the classroom to exploring the world.

At Havenova Home Care Solutions, we believe protecting children’s vision is the key to a healthier, more fulfilling future.

Why Your Child’s Eye Health Matters

Over 25% of school-aged children have vision issues that can negatively affect learning, development, and behavior. Because vision changes can be unpredictable and challenging, many child vision problems go undiagnosed.

The latter might stunt development, make it impossible to excel in school, and even result in a lifetime of less-than-optimal vision. That is why it is critical to recognize the indicators, threats, and safety measures that pertain to kids’ eyes.

Common Indicators of Vision Disease in Kids Include:

• Frequent eye rubbing or blinking

• Squinting or tilting their head

• Holding books or screens very near their face

• Complaining of headaches or weary eyes

• Focus or inability to follow in class

If your child does any of these signs, consult an eye care professional as soon as possible.

Every Parent Should Be Aware of Eye Safety

Kids are explorers who are always on the move: they require eye protection whether they engage in sports, use screens for hours or go out in the sun. Your efforts as a parent can aid in the following ways:

• Limit screen use: Staring at screens for long periods can cause digital eye strain.

• Preventative eyewear: When engaging in sports or leisure activities, ensure children have protective goggles or rigid UV-blocking sunglasses.

• Balanced diet: Make sure your child gets a vitamin-rich diet including vitamin A and antioxidants.

• Good hygiene: Use regular handwashing and prevention of eye rubbing to prevent pink eye.

• Regular eye checkups:

The American Optometric Association advises eye exams for children under:

• Six months

• Three years old

• First grade
  Then an annual eye test thereafter.
