Fernández Agrafojo Dora
At birth our eyesight is practically zero and fully develops by the time we are five years or so of age. A child's early years are crucial in terms of their development, so it's imperative to take care of their eyesight.
- When should we take a child to the ophthalmologist?
The most normal reasons to do so are if:
- The child sits too close to the screen when watching TV or holds the paper too close when reading or writing,
- Blink frequently or always the same eye winks
- The child squints his/her eyes to see
- Twist the head when he wants to stare
- The child experiences headaches
- Note difference in the vision of an eye compared to the other
- The child's eyes are often red
- Presents styes frequently and peeling of the lashline
- The child's eyes are misaligned (Strabismus)
- If any members in the family have a history of eye problems
- The child's pupils are white
- The child encounters difficulties reading and writing
- What is school vision?
The visual development of a child just about reaches its peak between the ages of six and seven years, though it may be quicker in some children or slower in others. The fact that they are starting school thus poses a number of important questions:
- Is the child ready -in terms of their vision- to be learning how to read and write?
- What are the minimal requirements a child must meet to avoid facing problems with sight throughout their education?
- For what symptoms of forthcoming problems should we be on the look-out?
People are becoming more and more aware of the importance of sound visual accuracy. To see the words on the blackboard is essential, but it does not end there, because the child will spend many hours reading, writing, drawing…in short, to call upon their near sight in activities.
We can confidently declare that, without accounting for physical education and recreation, 80% of a child's time in school is spent using their near sight.
The traditional tests which allow parents to be told "your child has good eyesight, displaying 100% long vision" assess nothing more than one of the numerous skills required for a child to read. Why? What good is excellent long vision to a child if they cannot sustain a gaze of 30-40 cm ahead of them, or read for no longer than 10 minutes at a time?
