CHILDREN'S EYE EXAMS

As a parent, it's essential to ensure that your child gets routine eye exams. At Dr. Wacasey, Therapeutic Optometrist in Longview, TX, our optometrist specializes in children's eye exams and students' eye exams. Dr. Gregory K. Wacasey is dedicated to ensuring that your child’s eye health and vision are at their best. Good vision is essential for success in school and growing up.
 

When Children Need Eye Exams

Children should have their first eye exam at around six months old to ensure that their eyes are developing normally. After the initial visit, children should have a second exam at age two or three. Another exam should occur before school begins and annually after that. Regular eye exams help to identify any vision problems and implement proactive interventions.
 

Children's vision can change frequently, so it's best to visit Dr. Wacasey annually. Also, children are often involved in many activities, sports, and clubs that require an accurate prescription. As children grow, their eyeglasses or contacts will also stop fitting correctly. Our eye doctor will update your children's eyewear to make sure they are comfortable.
 

How Pediatric Eye Exams Work

Pediatric eye exams are similar to adult exams. We will conduct various tests, such as visual acuity, eye tracking, and eye movement tests. We will also ask about daily vision difficulties and school performance. We will try and talk with your child to make him or her feel comfortable during the exam. We'll also check for any signs of eye diseases.
