Children’s Eye Care

Supporting Your Child’s Vision from Age 4 and Beyond

At Fort Meade Family Eyecare, we specialize in providing comprehensive eye exams for children aged 4 and older. Our goal is to ensure that your child’s vision supports their learning, development, and daily activities as they grow.

While early childhood is a critical time for visual development, we focus our pediatric services on children who are 4 years old and above.

This approach allows us to utilize age-appropriate testing methods and ensure accurate assessments of visual acuity, eye coordination, and overall eye health.

Why Eye Exams Matter for Children

Children rely heavily on their vision for learning and interacting with the world around them. Regular eye exams can detect issues such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and eye alignment problems that may affect academic performance and quality of life.

What to Expect During the Exam

Our pediatric eye exams for children aged 4 and up include:

• Assessment of visual acuity
• Evaluation of eye alignment and coordination
• Screening for refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism)
• Examination of eye health and development
• Discussion of any visual concerns or symptoms

We strive to create a comfortable and engaging environment to help your child feel at ease during their visit.

Schedule Your Child’s Eye Exam

If your child is 4 years old or older, we invite you to schedule a comprehensive eye exam to support their visual health and development.
