Your child sits down to complete their homework, but within minutes they are rubbing their eyes, losing their place, or saying they do not want to read.
It may look like distraction or frustration, but visually demanding work can feel more difficult when a child cannot see clearly or comfortably.

These signs do not always mean there is a vision problem. However, a comprehensive eye exam can help rule one out and provide parents with a clearer understanding of their child’s visual needs.

Do not wait until the next report card. Book an appointment with Dayton Optometric Center today.

Does your child move closer and closer to their computer while completing schoolwork?

Sitting close to a screen can sometimes be a habit, but it may also be a sign that text or images are difficult to see. Other signs can include squinting, eye rubbing, headaches, tired eyes, or avoiding visually demanding assignments.

These behaviours can have several causes, and an eye exam can help determine whether vision may be contributing.

School has already started, but it is never too late to check. Schedule your child’s comprehensive eye exam with Dayton Optometric Center.

The school year is underway, and your child is finally back in a regular classroom routine. But are they squinting to see the board, moving closer to classroom displays, or copying information incorrectly?

Children do not always realize when their vision is blurry. They may believe everyone sees the board the same way they do.

Missing the back-to-school rush does not mean it is too late. Book a comprehensive children’s eye exam with Dayton Optometric Center and make sure your child’s vision is ready for the school year ahead.
