Half-term is for adventures, puddle-jumping, and making memories. But if you’re worried that your child isn’t seeing as clearly as they should be, we want to hear from you! Keep an eye out for:

- Frequent eye rubbing or blinking.
- Sitting closer to the TV than usual.
- Tilting their head to one side to see better.
- Closing one eye while reading.

If you’ve spotted anything that’s made you go "hmmm," don’t wonder in silence. We’re here to help.

Get in touch with us to discuss any concerns you have about your child's vision, and arrange an appointment. We’re always happy to provide our expert advice.

Heading on a winter sports trip? Sunglasses or goggles with UV protection are essential for skiing or snowboarding. Snow reflects sunlight, increasing glare and UV exposure, which can strain your eyes or even cause snow blindness. Protect your vision on the slopes with the right eyewear.
