Pediatric Eye Care: Why Is It Important?

  • Concerned that your child's eyesight may be hindering their development?
  • Does your child's eyes appear misaligned?

Studies show that up to 10% of young children have vision problems. However, kids generally aren't aware there's an issue, and don't complain about their eyes. It is therefore crucial to detect the first signs of vision problems before complications arise.

Give them the clear vision and healthy eyes they deserve by visiting our Florissant pediatric eye doctor at Crown Vision Center - Florissant.

4 Signs Your Child May Have a Vision Problem

  • Trouble seeing electronic screens

    Your child sits very close, tilts their head or squints to better see TVs, computer screens and other electronic screens.

  • Difficulty reading or following moving objects

    Your child often loses their place while reading, or can’t track a ball as it moves when playing sports.

  • Headaches & eye strain

    Your child complains of tired eyes or headaches after performing tasks that are visually intensive, such as reading or writing.

  • Missed milestones

    Your child may miss milestones such as crawling and walking, or show signs of poor depth perception.

For your child to successfully engage in sports and achieve their academic potential, they need to have healthy eyes and clear vision. The experienced and caring children's eye doctors at Crown Vision Center - Florissant will carefully examine their eyes and provide guidance to ensure your child’s healthy vision.


Pediatric Eye Care FAQs

How do you take care of kids
  • Make sure they wear sunglasses and a hat to protect their eyes from dangerous UV rays when outside.
  • Increase the time they spend outdoors. 
  • Make sure they eat their fruits and veggies. Fruits and veggies high in lutein and zeaxanthin have been found to protect eyes from free radical damage.
  • Schedule regular pediatric eye exams. Detecting and treating eye conditions and diseases commonly found in children, such as strabismus and amblyopia, can help prevent unnecessary struggles and vision problems later in life. The pediatric eye doctor will also check your child’s vision for refractive errors and visual skill deficiencies that might hinder your child’s development.

Today was my first day going to Crown Vision. From the moment I walked in the door I was greeted, an... d the staff was so friendly and helpful. The receptionist even helped my mom fill out her intake form on the iPad while I did mine. My eye exam was easy and thorough and things were explained to me along the way I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Osborne. She made me feel comfortable, took her time and at the end of my exam, my contacts allowed me to see 20/20! Doctor Osborne explained everything to me. She is very smart and really cared about the questions I had. Finally, the Woman that helped me pick out my glasses was so sweet and kind. She took time to explain all the cost. Needless to say, I had the best experience from the moment I walked in the door until I left. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends and anyone looking for glasses or contacts. They had a variety of frames to choose from and even some designer frames. I couldn’t be more pleased and plan on going there in the future.

The office manager is great. My time there was amazing. I’ve been coming to this location for many... years. Just recently found out there’s a new office manager. She was nice & polite. GREAT customer service. She also allowed my daughter who wasn’t being seen color while we waiting for my oldest appointment to be completed. 10/10 I highly RECOMMEND!!!
