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.
