Pediatric Eye Care
Can you imagine going through childhood without the ability to see clearly? It would hamper your ability to see and experience the world around you. Fortunately, this doesn’t have to be the reality for your child because you know the optometrists at Lebanon Optometric Center and Breese Family Vision Center. Our dedicated team is here to provide exams and treatments that help identify and correct vision problems, disease, and conditions.
Symptoms of Eye Problems
How do you know if your child needs help? Children are not always able to express their condition because they’ve never experienced a world with truly clear vision. With that in mind, it’s important to ask your children questions about their vision, adhere to routine vision exams, and watch out for the signs and symptoms of vision problems.
