Studies show that ADHD medications can reduce the ability of the eyes to focus up close, causing blurry vision.
If your child is on ADHD medication, it is important to check their eyes regularly to prevent poor performance at school due to poor vision.

Did you know?
Rubbing your eyes stimulates tear production for dryness, clears out irritants, and triggers the slowing of your heart rate to promotes relaxation.
This temporary, feel-good response can mask underlying issues and, if done too vigorously or too often, can cause eye damage like corneal thinning (keratoconus) or infection.
Tired eyes could be a sing of other serious eye conditions.

Contact us today to take care of your eyes.
