It is estimated that 1 million children returned to school this year with an undiagnosed vision problem. Poor eyesight can have a significant effect on children’s ability to learn and on their behaviour - yet often goes unrecognized by teachers, parents and by the children themselves. Children may not be aware of or may not be able to explain their vision difficulties and a parent or teacher may not notice any problems.
Commenting on children’s eye health, Bob Hughes, Chief Executive at the Association of Optometrists, said: “It’s an absolute public health disgrace. There are problems which can be corrected in young people’s eyes and yet it’s a buried issue, an unknown issue, that children are losing out on a good education because they can’t see properly.”

The sooner that vision problems are detected - the better the outcome. Many childhood eye conditions, such as lazy eye and squint, can be treated if they are picked up early - as the eye and visual system are actively developing during the school years. If vision problems are identified and treated, it can make a difference that lasts a lifetime.

Sight Tests are free for all children under the age of 16. Parents can take their children along to a local optometrist or optician for a free NHS Sight Test. Optometrists in the community are qualified to examine the eyes of all children, paid for by the NHS. Help towards the cost of glasses is also available on the NHS for all children. Toddlers and young children do not need to be able to read, as an eye examination can be carried out using pictures.

The UK is a long way behind the rest of Europe in the number of children who have regular eye examinations and the proportion of children who wear vision correction. In France, it’s part of the summer back to school routine to book children in for an eye exam. In the US state of Kentucky, it is law that every child must have a comprehensive eye examination before they are allowed to start school.
Many parents still assume that their child will have their vision checked at school, regardless of whether this actually happens or not. Vision screening provision is patchy – many areas do not provide it. Even where vision screening is provided in school, there are many conditions which, although they may cause significant problems to a child and their ability to learn, will not be picked up at a screening. Screenings are designed to pick up amblyopia; what about moderate refractive error, binocular vision anomalies and the overall health of the eyes? A proper sight test is free – why not have one?

The optical sector has been campaigning to raise awareness of the importance of children's eye health with parents and teachers. Polly Dulley, Chair of the Optical Confederation’s Children’s Eyecare Initiative, said: “We are gathering scientific evidence of the importance of eye care for children, as well as producing a policy statement on children’s eye health. This will include the issue of vision screening and key stage interventions to ensure all children have access to eye care at the time they need it and, as a consequence, are fully able to develop their social and educational potential.”

‘To See or Not to See?’ – that is the question

noreply@blogger.com (Eyelink Cambridge) — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 22:26:00 +0000

Did you know that having an eye test is so much more than just checking your vision?

Did you know that during a routine eye test signs of high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol even tumours can be detected?

Most people wrongly assume that if they don’t have any obvious problems with their sight, that everything must be fine. Regular eye tests help in early diagnosis of common eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma and macular degeneration. These diseases may not be apparent to the patient until significant progression has occurred. Treatment of these conditions in the early stages can be vital to help prevent sight loss.

Having an eye test is also part of your general wellbeing. Did you know tension in your head, neck or shoulders, headaches, dizziness and fatigue could be a sign that you need an eye test and be associated with eye problems?

We live in a very technological society with computers at work, children using gaming systems for entertainment, mobile phones etc. all which put a great stress on the visual system. It is recommended that anyone under sixteen has an eye test annually and adults at least once every two years – but your optometrist will guide you for the most appropriate test interval for you.

Just like your GP and your dentist, your local independent optician is a highly qualified, skilled professional with your best interests at heart. He or she brings the benefit of years of training and experience designed to take care of your eyes. Your independent optician takes time to understand you and your lifestyle and believes in continuity of care. We choose from a wide range of manufacturers to find the best in spectacles and contact lenses for you. We invest in building a relationship with you, to ensure the long term health of your eyes.
