For school-age children near Agincourt, much of the day is spent reading, copying from the board, and working on screens. If your child squints, sits close to the TV, holds books near their face, or loses their place while reading, it may be worth booking an exam. Frequent eye rubbing and headaches after school can also be signs to mention.
A school vision screening can be a helpful first check, but it does not replace a comprehensive eye exam. A full exam lets your optometrist look beyond a distance chart at the skills that support learning. If your child did not pass a screening, or you still have concerns after a passed one, we can take a closer look.
