Pediatrics Eye Care

Pediatric eye care is dedicated to identifying and treating vision issues in children, ensuring their eyes develop properly. Detecting eye conditions like myopia (nearsightedness) early can help avoid long-term problems and promote clear vision throughout life.

Understanding Myopia in Children

Myopia is a prevalent vision issue where children can see things up close clearly but have difficulty with objects that are far away. This happens when the eyeball is elongated, causing light to focus in front of the retina rather than directly on it.

Why is Myopia a Growing Concern?

Currently, 30% of the global population is myopic, and projections suggest this could rise to 50% by 2050. Factors such as increased screen time, excessive near-work, and genetics are contributing to the growing number of myopia cases.

Signs Your Child May Have Myopia

  • Squinting or having trouble seeing distant objects (like the blackboard at school).
  • Sitting too close to screens or books.
  • Experiencing frequent eye strain, headaches, or rubbing their eyes.
  • Complaining of blurry vision, particularly at a distance.

Types of Myopia in Children

  • Congenital Myopia – Present at birth.
  • School Myopia – Develops during childhood and typically stabilizes in the teenage years.
  • Degenerative Myopia – Progressive and can lead to serious eye issues such as glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal detachment.

Why Early Detection Matters?

If left untreated, myopia can result in lazy eye (amblyopia) and other vision-threatening complications. Regular eye exams are crucial for timely intervention and to prevent long-term damage.
