Is Your Child Struggling to See Clearly? It Could Be Myopia
If your child squints often, sits too close to screens, or complains about headaches, it may be more than just tired eyes. Myopia (short-sightedness) is becoming increasingly common in children due to increased screen time and reduced outdoor activity. Early eye check-ups can help detect myopia and manage it effectively, protecting your child’s vision as they grow. Because clear vision today builds a brighter tomorrow.

Protect Your Eyesight — Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late
Your eyes work hard every day, yet vision problems often go unnoticed until they start affecting daily life. Low vision can develop gradually due to eye strain, ageing, excessive screen time, or underlying eye conditions.
Ignoring early signs like blurred vision, headaches, difficulty reading, or eye fatigue can lead to long-term vision issues. The good news? Most eye problems can be managed or slowed down with early eye check-ups and proper eye care.
Protect your eyesight today by scheduling regular eye examinations and giving your eyes the care they deserve. Early detection can make a world of difference—because once vision is lost, it cannot always be restored.
👁️ Take action now. Your eyes deserve timely care.

👁️ Symptoms of Glaucoma – Don’t Ignore the Signs
Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of vision because early stages may show no symptoms. But as it progresses, you may notice:
🔹 Gradual loss of side (peripheral) vision
🔹 Blurred or patchy vision
🔹 Eye pain or pressure
🔹 Redness in the eyes
🔹 Headaches
🔹 Seeing halos around lights
🔹 Sudden vision loss (in advanced cases)
🚨 Why You Should Consult a Doctor ASAP
Glaucoma-related vision loss is permanent and cannot be reversed. Early diagnosis and timely treatment can slow progression and protect your eyesight. A simple eye check-up can make all the difference.
👉 Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen—early action saves vision.
