No more flares on traffic lights at night!!

This child of mine keeps ordering new glasses!
Lovely Demi.
She’s also loving her custom made Biometric Intelligent Lenses from Rodenstock .au

She got measured and her eyes were scanned and the lab used our prescription to make the most intelligent clear lenses that Demi has ever had!

Is that three pairs in one year?

🌟 School holidays are here! 🌟 Have you noticed your child is excelling in everything except school?

Many kids struggle with vision issues that make learning challenging, even if they have 20/20 eyesight.

Modern classrooms require quick shifts in focus from the board to their desks, and some children may find this difficult.

Weak eye focusing , “accommodation”) and poor eye teaming “Binocular Vision Dysfunction “, can hinder your child’s ability to copy notes effectively.

Unfortunately, these issues often go unnoticed during standard vision eye tests and screenings.

Help your child see and learn better! Schedule a functional vision exam today. Call us on 0394488933 or book on line to chat with our expert . 🥳📚✨

Dad, my heart is shattered. You fought valiantly, and today you left our world. But you will always remain in our hearts and memories.

You were the most humble man I’ve ever known, and you should take pride in the person you were and the values you upheld.

When I was young and confused about our struggles, you showed me that true wealth lies in having a warm bed, clothes to keep us cozy, food to nourish us, and the love of family.

I will carry those lessons, and you, with me always.

You broke my heart today, Dad 🖤. Fly high and rest in peace.

Thank you for the KINDNESS my wonderful patients how shown me and allowed me to take phone calls, talk to dad’s doctors and waited patiently while I looked after my daddy

🖤🖤🖤🖤.

What is the known globally as the gold standard for assessing children with myopia.

Axial Length

What do we do with axial length measurements?

Axial length measurements help eyecare professionals to determine if a child is likely to become myopic and to measure the success (or not) of any myopia management strategy.

Any child in the 75th centile at the age of six is likely to become myopic. The chart below (for a male caucasian child) shows a child with an axial length of 23.07mm or greater at 6 has a higher chance of becoming myopic. The greater a child’s axial length, the greater the potential for progression.

Myopia control is our passion and unlike most optometry clinics we have the equipment to measure your child’s actual length both in yarraville and geelong.

Both of our eyes were designed to see the world equally. Unfortunately, this is not the case for everyone: Amblyopia is when one eye does not see as well as the other.

This may be caused by:

Uneven Refraction

Strabismus (turned eyes)

Uncorrected Astigmatism

Long-sightedness (Hyperopia)

Congenital Myopia

Family history or genetics

The brain automatically chooses to ignore the blurred image from the weaker eye. The nerves are not stimulated and can often regress. It is important to assess and treat this problem to balance out your vision. Often glasses are able solve this problem.

Kiddies Eye Care proudly works with a Melbourne-based lens company to make specialised lenses which are specifically targeted to assist with the growth of the neurones to the visual cortex.

High-definition digital, quality lenses with differing design, including anti-Fatigue or Shaw lens have produced amazing results. In many cases we have had such vast improvements that have eliminated the need to patch.

Occlusion therapy may also be required in some situations where unequal vision in both eyes continues. By patching the good eye, the weaker eye is encouraged to wake up and work. Alternatively, atropine drops are able to achieve the same mechanism.

We strive to achieve that all our children “have a spare tyre” with regards to two eyes working. Only once the vision is improved can the eyes then learn to see together and promote stereopsis/3D/depth perception.
