Back to School Eye Exams

Published by Lance Kugler, MD on August 2, 2016

One of the most important tests students will take this year won’t be in the classroom – it’s their eye exam! Help prep your child for success by scheduling them an eye exam, also known as an EyeAnalysis, at Kugler Vision in Omaha, NE. Our comprehensive eye exams for ages 10 and up will ensure that they can see clearly in school– both reading textbooks up close and the chalkboard across the room! While amazing and beneficial in many areas of life, today’s increasing use of technology at home and in school has a downside– it takes a toll on the vision and eye health of children. Technology enhances kids’ learning opportunities and provides entertainment; unfortunately, the long-term effects on children’s eyes are not yet fully known. It is more essential than ever to have their eyes thoroughly examined!

Kids Don’t Learn Well If They Can’t See Well!eye-exams

As a parent, you may wonder if you child can see the board. You don’t want them asking their peer, “What is today’s date? Is an assignment written on the board? I can’t tell is that page 177? or page 122? Can you see that?” Eye exams for children are extremely important because approximately 25 percent of school-aged children have vision problems.

For kids in grades K-12, the AOA recommends an eye exam every two years if they do not require vision correction, like glasses or contacts to see; however, if your child does need glasses or contact lenses then they should have an annual exam, also known as an EyeAnalysis, at Kugler Vision.

It’s important to realize that vision testing at any age is vital to ensure your child has the visual ability they need to perform well in school. Relying on the vision screenings in the school isn’t enough! Simply put, kids don’t learn well if they can’t see well! Don’t wait until your child is having problems in the classroom. Be proactive and get them a comprehensive EyeAnalysis eye exam with us!
