Pediatric
eye exams.

Gentle, child-paced exams from age five. We check how your child’s vision is developing and make sure they are set up to see clearly at school, at practice, and everywhere in between.

What to expect

Kid-paced, parent-approved.

Most of what children learn comes through their eyes, and kids rarely announce that something looks blurry. A pediatric exam checks vision development early, before it affects reading, sports, or confidence.

01

A comfortable start

We keep the pace relaxed and explain every step in kid-friendly terms, so there are no surprises.

02

Vision development check

We measure how well your child sees near and far, and how their eyes focus, track, and work together.

03

Eye-health screening

A gentle look at the health of your child’s eyes, inside and out.

04

Results & next steps

You leave knowing exactly where your child’s vision stands, and whether glasses would help.

Ages & Insurance

We see pediatric patients ages five and up, and we carry frames sized for growing faces. We file most major medical and vision plans, including BlueCross BlueShield, VSP, EyeMed, Spectera, Humana, and Community Eye Care Plan.

Common questions

Before your visit.

What age do you start seeing children? +
We see pediatric patients ages five and up. It is a great habit to have an exam on the books before each school year starts.
My child passed the school vision screening. Is that enough? +
Screenings are useful, but they only catch certain problems at a moment in time. A full exam checks focusing, eye teaming, and eye health that screenings miss.
What are signs my child might need glasses? +
Squinting, sitting very close to screens, holding books close, frequent headaches, eye rubbing, or losing their place while reading are all worth checking out.
Do you carry frames for kids? +
Yes. We stock frames sized for ages five and up, fitted by hand so they stay put on active kids.
