One of 20 children ages 3 to 5 has a vision problem that could result in permanent vision if left untreated. Despite this, 80 percent of preschoolers do not receive an eye screening.

Children’s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month encourages parents to learn how to protect their child’s eyesight and save their child’s eyesight from vision threatening conditions through regular eye exams, hence early detection and proper treatment.

Have you taken your littles to the eye doc?
