Thankfully, serious vision problems during childhood are rare, but having your child’s eyes tested at an early age allows our opticians to diagnose and treat any potential issues as soon as possible.

At Specsavers, we understand the importance of eye health and clear vision at all ages, including the young. A child’s first eye test should take place at around three years old. They don’t have to be able to read, thanks to special charts, shapes, picture books and other exciting materials that the optician can use instead.
