Pediatric Eye Exam

Many eye problems start at a young age, meaning pediatric eye exams are crucial to ensure your child’s eyes are healthy and developing properly. Our eye care professionals provide children’s eye exams in Mt. Pleasant, St. Louis, Carson City, and Alma, Michigan. Our experienced optometrists specialize in working with children and providing comprehensive eye care tailored to their unique needs. 

What to expect during a pediatric eye exam

During a pediatric eye exam, our optometrists will assess your child’s visual acuity (how well they see up close and at a distance) as well as screen for common eye conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (crossed eyes), and refractive errors like nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia). Early detection of these issues is crucial for effective treatment and preventing any long-term consequences on your child’s vision.

Regular pediatric eye exams not only help detect any existing eye problems but also allow us to be proactive in preventing future issues. For example, if your child is diagnosed with myopia, we offer myopia management to help slow down its progression and reduce the risk of more serious complications later in life. We also provide vision therapy in Mt. Pleasant for kids who may be struggling with visual processing issues or other developmental concerns. 

Schedule a pediatric eye exam 

Don’t wait until your child complains about blurry vision or headaches before scheduling a pediatric eye exam! Regular check-ups with an optometrist can catch potential issues before they affect learning and development. Contact us today to book a pediatric eye exam in Mt. Pleasant, St. Louis, Carson City, or Alma, Michigan. 

Brought my toddler son for a vision test and felt welcomed, staff worked well with him. Made an appointment for myself afterwards and staff was friendly and helpful when picking glasses.

I have gone here for eye exams both for myself and now my two young boys, and every appointment has been a positive experience. Dr. Alda is kind and warm. All the staff have been really great with kids. The selection of glasses is extensive and there are many price points, so there’s something for everyone. My son picked out two pairs of glasses and can’t wait to wear them! I would recommend this office to anyone. Thank you, Pleasant Optics!
