Steps to Protect Your Child’s Sight


We provide thorough pediatric eye exams to assess your child’s eye health and detect vision problems, such as nearsightedness (myopia) or astigmatism. These exams also evaluate eye alignment and focus to ensure proper development.

For children who need further support, we offer services like vision therapy to treat conditions such as lazy eye (amblyopia) and focusing issues. We also provide myopia management to slow the progression of nearsightedness.
