YOUR CHILD’S FIRST EYE EXAMINATION SHOULD BE AT AGE 3.

Most people believe that kids should not even have issues with their eyes. Because they are kids, I mean what have they seen in life that they should be having eye issues?. So for this reason, most parent do not even want to think of taking their child to the clinic at such an early age because visiting the clinic at all means there is a problem ( according to most parents).

When you buy an electronic product, it’s possible for the product to have factory faults or faults resulting from shipping the product from point of production to point of sales.

Similarly as kids go through the process of development in the womb through to delivery, many issues may arise, probably as a result of genetic mutation or makeup, complications from food or drugs taken or not taken by the pregnant mum, issues arising from the delivery process et.c.

All these can only be uncovered during an extensive eye Examination. And once discovered, it is best that they are treated early, as optimum recovery is achieved with early treatment.
