Vision Testing

See To Learn was developed by the Eye Care Council as a preventive program to help make sure every child’s early education is unaffected by vision problems. Through See To Learn, parents can schedule a FREE vision assessment for their 3-year-old child in a participating optometrist’s office.

What to expect at your child’s vision assessment

Your child’s age will determine which testing is appropriate, but most assessments include a case history, vision testing, testing of eye alignment and an eye health examination, followed by a consultation with you on the findings.

The American Optometric Association recommends that babies have their first eye exam at 6 months, followed by exams at age three and before starting first grade. Preschoolers are given a set of specialized tests made for kids who don’t know their letters or numbers yet.

After that the AOA calls for vision assessments every two years for school-age children, with yearly visits for kids who wear glasses or contacts.

Schedule your child’s testing for a happy, rested time of day. Before the day of your appointment, take time to observe so that you can report any concerns: Is she rubbing her eyes? Squinting? Having trouble with eye contact? Do his eyes track moving objects? You should also tell your optometrist about:
