Behavioural Optometry Melbourne
As a parent, staying attuned to your child’s visual well-being is essential. Children don’t always realise they have a vision problem, so early observation can make all the difference.
Common Signs Of Visual Difficulties
Below are some common signs that may indicate your child is experiencing visual difficulties:
- Frequent squinting
- Excessive eye rubbing
- Tilting the head or covering one eye
- Holding objects very close
- Avoiding close work (such as reading, writing, or drawing)
- Sensitivity to light
- Frequent headaches
- Difficulty concentrating
- Excessive tearing
- Eyes that appear crossed or wandering
- Poor hand eye coordination
When It’s Time to See a Behavioural Optometrist
If you notice any of these signs, it’s a good idea to book a comprehensive eye test at Diamond Valley Optical. We offer specialised behavioural optometry services for Melbourne families and welcome every child with care, patience, and a smile.
