How much screen time is too much for kids? While there's no magic number, it's important to monitor for signs of digital eye strain.

Besides taking breaks, keep your child's screen at a comfortable distance (arm's length is a good rule) and adjust the brightness to match the room's lighting.

A yearly comprehensive eye exam is crucial for monitoring your child's developing vision and uncovering any potential issues early.

Book an appointment for your child's eye check-up at our Nepean, Ontario clinic today. Link in bio!
