Prepare Your Child for a Strong Start Next Year
A new school year is just around the corner, and one of the most important ways to prepare your child for success is to ensure they have clear, healthy vision. With up to 80% of learning being visual, even minor eyesight issues can impact how children read, focus, and perform in class. A simple eye test today can help your child start the new school year with confidence.
Why Kids’ Eye Tests Are So Important
Children often don’t realise they have a vision problem — they simply adapt and assume that what they see is “normal.” Unfortunately, this can lead to difficulties in reading, classroom performance, concentration, and even behaviour.
Early detection is key, and regular eye examinations ensure your child is always ready to learn.
Signs Your Child May Need an Eye Test
- Frequent headaches or eye rubbing
- Holding books, devices, or screens very close
- Complaints of blurred or double vision
- Difficulty concentrating or reading for long periods
- Squinting or tilting their head
- Struggling with schoolwork or dropping marks
- Increased screen fatigue
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to book a test.
How Often Should Kids Have Their Eyes Tested?
Children’s vision changes quickly as they grow. Regular eye examinations help detect issues early and support healthy visual development.
Dynamic Vision recommends:
- 6 months old: First eye test
- 3 years old: Second test
- Before Grade 1: Around age 5–6
- After that: Every 1–2 years, or sooner if symptoms appear
