Comprehensive Eye Care as Your Child Grows
Your child’s eyes are constantly developing, and healthy vision is essential for learning, play, and everyday activities. Regular eye exams, not to be confused with a basic school vision screening, allow us to detect issues early, support healthy visual development, and help your child see their best both at home and in the classroom.
At Eye Sea Davis, we make pediatric eye exams comfortable and welcoming, using gentle techniques and child-friendly technology to make each visit positive and stress-free. From checking how well their eyes focus and work together to screening for common conditions like nearsightedness or lazy eye, we provide thorough, personalized care for every child.
Protect your child’s eyesight and support their learning and growth by scheduling a comprehensive pediatric eye exam today.
When Should Your Kids Have an Eye Exam?
Children’s vision changes quickly as they grow, so multiple exams are recommended at key stages:
- First exam between 6–12 months
- At least one exam between ages 3–5
- Annual exams from ages 6–18
Regular exams help us keep your child’s vision on track and allow us to address issues early.
Why Eye Exams Are Important for Your Child
Your child’s vision is constantly developing as they grow, helping them learn, play, and interact with the world around them. While your child’s vision is crucial, an undiagnosed eye problem can affect their academic performance.
Eye problems can affect your child’s vision and ocular health. But we can diagnose these conditions during a comprehensive eye exam. Regular exams can help us identify issues in their earliest stages and assess if your child’s vision is functioning at its best.
Common eye problems in children include:
We also assess how well your child’s eyes work together and focus, which is essential for reading, sports, and other activities.
Signs Your Child May Have a Vision Problem
Your child may think everyone has similar vision to theirs if they have had a vision problem for a long time. Many vision problems develop early in childhood, so your child may not know they’re having difficulties. It’s essential to watch for signs of a problem and visit an optometrist if you start to notice any symptoms.
Your child may have a vision problem if they have any of the following symptoms:
- Eye rubbing or squinting
- Difficulty focusing
- Trouble reading or completing schoolwork
- Sitting too close to the TV or holding books very near
- Struggling to see distant objects clearly
- Frequent headaches
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to schedule an eye exam.
Technology We Use to Support Pediatric Care
We use modern tools to provide a thorough exam:
- Optos Imaging: Captures a wide view of the retina
- iCare Tonometry: Measures eye pressure comfortably
- Visual Field Testing: Detects changes in peripheral vision
- OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography): Examines internal eye structures for early detection of eye conditions
These technologies help us give accurate assessments while keeping the experience comfortable and stress-free for your child.

Real Patient Experiences
The tech person who conducted my eye exam was very competent and the optometrist was clear, knowledgeable, and encouraging.The staff at Eye Sea have been extremely helpful to me in working through a problem with my frames. I don’t know the name of the young woman who works at the front desk but she has been patient and knowledgeable on three separate occasions. And my problem has been solved!

Dr. Virk is amazing. She is totally committed to what my needs are and is a dedicated advocate for her patients. I left my appt with tons of peace of mind that my vision needs will be met. Thank you EyeSea. Doug
Douglas
Dr. Gaganjot Virk was incredibly kind and helpful! I received a thorough eye checkup and finally understood the actual issue with my eyes. After the first visit, I had a minor problem with my glasses, and she generously offered a free follow-up visit. Kudos to her assistant too; she was very courteous and dedicated to her work!
Shalk
Everything about my appointment was perfect: the staff was ready for me when I arrived. They helped me navigate the digital documents and expertly took me through all the testing even while orienting a new employee. Most importantly, Dr Virk was so pleasant & made me feel comfortable immediately. She listened to my concerns & collaborated with me to come up with an amazing remedy! I can see so well now.
Carol
I’ve been doing my post Lasik appointments here and they’ve been amazing! The doctor walked me through how to better take care of my lash extensions and answered a ton of other questions. And they always see me right away at my appointment time (which hasn’t been the case at any other eye doctors I’ve been to in the last decade). Would definitely recommend!
