• Refractive Errors: Conditions like nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism, which can impair a child’s ability to see clearly.
• Strabismus (Squint): Misalignment of the eyes, where one or both eyes may turn in, out, up, or down.
• Amblyopia (Lazy Eye): A condition where one eye does not develop normal vision, often caused by strabismus or refractive errors.
• Convergence Insufficiency: Difficulty in coordinating both eyes to focus on nearby objects, often leading to reading problems or eye strain.
• Eye Health Conditions: Including cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal disorders, which may require immediate attention.

Strabismus and Amblyopia Treatment:

For children with strabismus or amblyopia, we offer customized treatment plans. Treatment options may include:

• Patching Therapy: Patching the stronger eye to encourage the weaker eye to develop better vision.
• Prism Lenses: To help align the eyes and improve focus.
• Squint Surgery: In cases where non-surgical treatments are not effective, our team can perform corrective surgery to realign the eyes and improve vision.

Refractive Error Correction:

Children with refractive errors may require corrective glasses or contact lenses to improve their vision. We guide parents in selecting the most suitable corrective measures for their child’s specific needs. Our team provides personalized advice on how to ensure that children wear their glasses comfortably and consistently.

Early Intervention for Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP):

We offer screening and management for premature infants at risk for Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP). Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent long-term vision problems and blindness in premature babies.

Oculoplasty Services for Children:

Our pediatric oculoplasty services include treatments for eyelid abnormalities, congenital ptosis (droopy eyelids), and other facial anomalies that may affect your child’s vision. We also manage nasolacrimal duct obstruction (blocked tear ducts) to ensure your child’s eye health.

We understand the importance of making children feel comfortable during their eye exams and treatments. Our clinic is equipped with child-friendly facilities and a warm, welcoming atmosphere to ensure that every child’s experience is positive and stress-free.
