Pediatric Eye Exam

At Bella Vista Family Eye Care, we offer pediatric eye exams in Rockford, Michigan for children of all ages. Pediatric eye exams are essential for catching issues early on before they affect your child’s learning and growth. Undetected vision problems can cause problems in school, such as having trouble with reading or staying focused. By addressing these issues early through regular eye exams, we can help set your child up for success academically and socially.  

Most schools and pediatricians offer vision screenings, but these exams are not the same as a comprehensive eye exam performed by a qualified optometrist. Basic vision screenings only check your child’s vision and may miss signs of other eye conditions or issues.  

What to expect during a pediatric eye exam 

During your child’s eye exam in Rockford, our friendly, experienced optometrist will check your child’s vision and overall eye health. Tests may include visual acuity testing, which measures how well your child can see at a distance, as well as screening for common vision problems such as nearsightedness, astigmatism, lazy eye (amblyopia), or crossed eyes (strabismus). Dr. Jackson may recommend glasses or contact lenses or further testing to address any issues he finds during the exam. 

If your child needs glasses, we offer children’s eyewear in Rockford in a range of fun and durable options. Our expert staff can help you find lenses and frames to fit your child’s needs.
