Paediatric Eye Centre

Paediatric Eye Centre "We love seeing kids." Jamaica's premiere paediatric optometric practice. Paediatric Eye Centre is the premiere eye practice in Jamaica for children.

We provide specialized care to children 6 months to 18 years old along with routine eye examinations for the entire family. Our principal optometrist, Dr. Cardice Riley-Ricketts completely understands the importance of early eye-care. The energy that kids bring spurred her to establish a dedicated paediatric practice in April 1998, though she already had established eye-care practices operating in Central Jamaica. Our multi-disciplinary approach to paediatric eye-care integrates a detailed assessment of the visual system with primary level evaluations of perceptual, cognitive, tactile, and auditory development. This holistic approach offers a greater opportunity to detect the true cause of developmental challenges a child may be encountering. Our Practice offers the following services:
• Complete Eye Exams
• Contact Lenses
• Glasses
• Glaucoma Testing
• Pre- and Post-operative Care for Eye-turns (Strabismus) and for Cataracts. Our Developmental Centre offers:
• Physical Growth Tracking
• Perceptual Testing
• Reading Classes

🔍👁️ What’s a vision screening?
Think of it as a quick check-up for your child’s eyes like a pop quiz to see how well their eyes are working!
Vision screenings help spot potential problems early, even if your child hasn’t said anything. They don’t replace a full eye exam, but they’re a great first step in protecting your child’s sight. 🌟
✨ Early detection = early action!
If anything unusual shows up, we’ll recommend a full eye exam with Dr. Riley-Ricketts to take a closer look. 👓

High blood sugar from diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in your child’s eyes. Over time, these weakened vessels may leak into important parts of the eye

👩‍⚕️ If your child has diabetes or you have concerns about their vision, don’t wait.
