Austin Meadows, Class of 2028, recently brought his son Kolbe to have his first eye exam at UAB Eye Care! ❤️

UAB Eye Care conducts free eye exams for infants between 6 and 12 months through InfantSEE®, a program in optometry designed to ensure that eye and vision care become an essential part of infant wellness to improve a child’s quality of life.

The comprehensive, dilated eye examinations consist of assessing visual function, eye alignment, the need for glasses and eye health, as well as aiming to obtain early recognition of problems with any of these that could lead to vision loss or other problems.
