Persistent tearing or discharge
Sensitivity to light
Difficulty focusing or following objects
Delayed visual response
Pediatric Eye Conditions We Treat
Strabismus (Crossed Eyes)
A condition where one or both eyes are misaligned, especially noticeable when focusing.
In some cases, it may be mild, but if it persists, early evaluation is important to prevent vision problems.
Pediatric Cataract
A clouding of the eye’s lens may affect the development of vision in the child. Early diagnosis is very important to ensure normal visual development and to prevent amblyopia and permanent vision loss.
Pediatric Glaucoma
A rare condition that may lead to increased eye pressure and damage to the optic nerve.
It requires close monitoring and early treatment to preserve vision.
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
Occurs in premature infants due to incomplete development of retinal blood vessels.
Early screening and follow-up are crucial to prevent complications.
Tear Duct Obstruction
Causes persistent tearing or discharge in the child’s eye. In many cases, it resolves on its own, while some may require simple intervention.
