Healthy vision is essential for a child’s overall growth, learning, and development. Many eye conditions can be prevented or treated if detected early, but unfortunately, children may not always realize they have a problem.
🔎 Why Eye Health Matters
* 80% of learning in school is visual — poor eyesight can affect academic performance.
* Untreated vision problems can lead to developmental delays and low confidence.
* Eye injuries are a leading cause of vision loss in children, yet most are preventable.
🧒 Common Childhood Eye Problems
* Refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism)
* Lazy eye (amblyopia)
* Crossed eyes (strabismus)
* Eye allergies and infections
✅ Tips for Protecting Children’s Eyes
1. Schedule regular eye exams — starting before school age.
2. Encourage outdoor play — natural light helps reduce myopia risk.
3. Limit screen time — follow the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds).
4. Protect eyes during sports — use protective eyewear to prevent injuries.
5. Promote a healthy diet — foods rich in Vitamin A, C, and omega-3s boost eye health.
