About Us:

For over sixty years, and through two generations, Brookhaven Opticians has strived to uphold its mission statement and code of ethics, which highlight the company’s dedication to provide quality precision eyewear, with a focus on fulfilling complex prescriptions, and serving infant and pediatric eyewear needs. Along the way, Brookhaven Opticians has grown from one location to four, and has solidified its reputation as a precision eyewear facility. The first Brookhaven Opticians location, on Main Street in the town of Patchogue, was opened by Arsenio R. Mastrorocco, became quickly known for its ability to execute eyewear prescriptions with incredible accuracy, and adeptness for fitting unusual and custom fabricated eyewear. Rapidly, Brookhaven came to represent the very best in eyecare services. Today, Paul Mastrorocco continues to follow in his father’s footsteps and adhere to Brookhaven’s mission statement diligently, maintaining a family-owned and operated precision eyewear facility. Brookhaven continues to be staffed by New York State licensed opticians with extensive experience in all areas of infant, pediatric, adult and post-cataract eyewear. In the hands of Brookhaven’s expert eyewear lab technicians, who use state-of-the-art lens fabrication and tinting equipment, every customer walks away knowing that their prescription was filled to the exact specifications of their eye doctor.

Pediatric Eyewear: A Comprehensive Guide

Importance of Pediatric Eyewear

Children’s vision is critical to their overall development, influencing their ability to learn, interact, and experience the world. Proper eyewear not only corrects vision but also helps prevent eye strain, headaches, and further vision deterioration. Early detection and correction of vision problems can lead to better academic performance and social interactions.

Common Vision Problems in Children

1. Myopia (Nearsightedness): Difficulty seeing distant objects clearly.
2. Hyperopia (Farsightedness): Difficulty seeing close objects clearly.
3. Astigmatism: Blurred vision due to an irregularly shaped cornea or lens.
4. Amblyopia (Lazy Eye): Reduced vision in one eye, often treated with corrective lenses or patching.
5. Strabismus (Crossed Eyes): Misalignment of the eyes, which can be corrected with glasses, exercises, or surgery.

Choosing the Right Eyewear

Prescription Lenses

• Single Vision Lenses: Correct one type of vision problem (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism).
• Bifocal and Multifocal Lenses: Used for children with presbyopia or other conditions requiring multiple corrections.
• Polycarbonate or Trivex Lenses: Highly recommended for children due to their impact resistance and lightweight properties.

Frames

• Material: Durable materials like plastic or metal with flexible hinges are ideal for active children.
• Fit: Frames should fit well on the nose and behind the ears without slipping or causing discomfort.
• Style: Allowing children to choose frames they like can encourage them to wear their glasses regularly.

Safety Considerations

• Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate lenses are shatterproof, providing safety during sports and play.
• UV Protection: Lenses should offer 100% UVA and UVB protection to shield young eyes from harmful rays.
• Sports Goggles: For children involved in sports, specially designed sports goggles offer better protection and durability.

Encouraging Wear and Care

1. Positive Reinforcement: Praise and reward children for wearing their glasses.
2. Routine: Incorporate glasses-wearing into daily routines to make it a habit.
3. Maintenance: Teach children how to clean and store their glasses properly to extend their lifespan.

Eye Exams and Follow-Ups

Regular eye exams are crucial to monitor vision changes and ensure the prescription remains accurate. Pediatricians recommend the first eye exam at 6 months, another at 3 years, and annually once the child starts school. Early detection and correction can prevent many vision-related problems.

Conclusion

Pediatric eyewear plays a vital role in a child’s development. Selecting the right eyewear involves considering safety, comfort, and style, and requires regular eye exams to ensure the best vision care. With proper attention to these factors, children can enjoy clear vision and the many benefits it brings.
