๐๐ October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month ๐๐
At Beaverton Eye Health, we celebrate the unique strengths, talents, and beautiful diversity of individuals with Down syndrome.
Did you know? People with Down syndrome are more likely to experience a variety of vision challenges, including:
๐ Farsightedness or nearsightedness
๐๏ธ Crossed eyes (strabismus)
๐๏ธ Cataracts
๐๏ธ Keratoconus
๐ง And other conditions that can impact how the eyes and brain work together
Thatโs why early and regular eye exams are so important โ especially for children with Down syndrome. Clear vision can make a big difference in learning, confidence, and quality of life.
At Beaverton Eye Health, weโre committed to providing gentle, personalized care for every patient. We believe everyone deserves to see the world as clearly and beautifully as possible โ and to be seen for who they truly are.
๐ This month, we honor and support the Down syndrome community โ not just in October, but all year long.
