Children’s Eye Test in Balwyn
If you are noticing any of the following, it could be a sign your child needs an eye test.
- Squinting or covering one eye
- Sitting close to television or laptop screens
- Tilting their head
- Frequent headaches
- Rubbing eyes or complaints of eye pain
- Poor performance at school
All of these can be explained by poor short or long distance vision or a misalignment of the eyes. Luckily, these conditions can be corrected or managed with a properly prescribed pair of glasses.

Specialised Children’s Optometrist in Balwyn
While you may think of optometrists as only prescribing glasses, we actually provide a large range of services to correct vision and eye issues.
Our head optometrist, Son, has a special interest in orthokeratology. This lesser known form of vision correction can be compared to dental retainers for your eyes, and involves using specially constructed lenses, worn while you sleep, to reshape and retrain the eyes. Orthokeratology offers the possibility of completely correcting vision problems, meaning no need for glasses in the future.
