The importance of eye care in children
Undetected vision problems can impact your child’s performance both in and out of the classroom. Therefore, it’s important to understand eye health so you can recognize the signs that your child may have a vision problem and possibly need glasses.
Here are a few signs that indicate your child may be experiencing vision problems and need glasses:
1. Squinting
2. Tilting head or covering one eye
3. Sitting too close to the television or holding hand-held devices too close to the eyes
4. Rubbing eyes excessively
5. Complaining of headaches or eye pain
6. Having difficulty concentrating on school work
Contact your nearest Bierman Janeke branch if you are concerned about your child's eyes.
