Vision plays a key role in children’s development and growth.
As a parent, it's important to carefully nurture and promote healthy vision during your children’s school years, especially as their visual system is still developing. And it can be tricky in an increasingly connected world.
Smartphones, laptops, tablets… Children are more and more surrounded by digital devices, at home as well as in the academic environment. Today, teachers often use smart boards and interactive whiteboards, while at home children are frequently expected to do their homework on computers.
Additionally, the current situation has intensified the use of electronic devices; as outdoor activities have been replaced by more and more time spent in front of screens, and virtual education has become a new reality in many schools around the world.
Because of these constant changes to your child’s habits and lifestyle, it is important to take their eye health seriously. Ensuring they have regular eye assessments with an optician and access to the right lens solution for their young eyes.
For children with myopia, hypermetropia or astigmatism sight problems, this increased exposure to screens can be particularly harmful to their eyes. As a result, poor vision can impede their quality of life, lead to learning difficulties and cause them to fall short of their potential.
But with the right lens solution, adapted to their specific needs and modern lifestyle, they can continue to discover, learn something new every day and become the best version of themselves, all while enjoying every magical moment of their childhood.
Your child should be having regular eye assessments to help determine which solution is best for their requirements. For accurate eye assessments and access to our Eyezen Kids single vision lenses, find your local Essilor optician today.
Children don’t have the same visual needs as adults. Their visual system isn’t fully mature. They tend to move their eyes a lot more and often look up at the world around them, using a larger surface of the lens.
They need lenses adapted to their unique needs, behaviours, facial features and daily activities - including screen-time - and this is not the case with standard single vision lenses which were designed for adults.
This is exactly why we have designed Eyezen Kids. We have considered the eye movement of a child’s eyes, their facial features and more to design a lens that fits comfortably with their needs. Our Essilor partner opticians can provide more information about the design of our optimised single vision lenses and prescribe these for your child.
