Parents will often ask us when to bring their child in for an eye examination. The doctors at Abbey Eye Care recommend children have their first eye examination at 6 months of age, again at age 3 and every year after.

80% of learning is visual so we cannot stress the importance of brining your child in for an eye exam at an early age. Statistics show that only 15% of children have an eye exam before they start school. It is our goal at Abbey Eye Care to try and change that one child at a time.

Eye exams are covered by OHIP once per year up to and including age 19. Book your child’s eye exam today!
