CHILDREN’S EYE TESTS
OPTIQUE OF SOUTHWELL

WHAT OUR children’s EYE TESTs INCLUDE
Why Children’s Eye Tests Matter
Children don’t always realise when their vision isn’t quite right. Undetected issues can affect reading, concentration, coordination, and overall learning. Regular eye examinations allow us to identify and manage problems early, supporting your child’s long-term eye health and academic progress.
What to Expect During a Children’s Sight Test
Our experienced opticians use child-friendly techniques and equipment to assess your child’s visionin a relaxed environment.
The test may include:
Age-appropriate vision checks to assess clarity and focus
Eye coordination and tracking assessments
Screening for common conditions such as lazy eye (amblyopia) and squint (strabismus)
Eye health evaluation to ensure healthy development
We take extra care to make the experience positive and stress-free, explaining everything in a way both you and your child can understand.
