Pediatric Eye Care refers to the branch of ophthalmology that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of eye conditions and vision problems in children. This specialized area addresses a variety of issues, including refractive errors (such as nearsightedness and farsightedness), amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (crossed eyes), and congenital eye disorders. Pediatric eye care is essential because children’s visual systems are still developing, making early detection and intervention crucial for optimal visual outcomes. Eye exams for children often involve different testing methods and considerations compared to adults, as they may require specific strategies to engage young patients and accurately assess their vision. Pediatric eye care professionals often work closely with parents and caregivers to ensure proper understanding and management of a child’s eye health needs.
