Paediatric Ophthalmology in Indore

Paediatric ophthalmology is a subspecialty of ophthalmology that concentrates on treating the various eye problems affecting children

As the name suggests, a paediatric ophthalmologist has the skills and credentials to treat your kid if they have an eye condition, are having trouble with a vision screening exam, facing difficulties in reading or learning, or need surgery or medical therapy for an eye condition.

Early detection of vision-related issues in children is facilitated by pediatric ophthalmology. Diseases of the eyes may permanently impair a child’s vision if not addressed within six months of birth. The reason for this is that over the first six months of life, the optic nerve is still forming, and if the eye disorders are not cured during this time, it could result in irreversible damage.

Symptoms

You may observe that:

  • Frequently blinks or squints
  • Kids frequently rub their eyes
  • To see, close one eye
  • Have frequent headaches brought on by eye strain
  • Tilt their head in that direction

Tips for Paediatric Ophthalmology Care

1

Give Eyes Rest

It’s advised to take regular breaks every 30 to 40 minutes, whether reading, writing, or using a computer. Reduced use of handheld devices, cell phones, and other electronic devices is also necessary.

Say Yes To Healthy Habit

Getting at least eight hours of sleep every night is also significant to avoid your child’s eyes becoming tired. It was discovered that having foods high in lutein and zeaxanthin can help to prevent free radical damage to the eyes. Some kids can use paediatric glasses also.
