Bank holiday βœ… Half term βœ… Screens everywhere πŸ“±πŸ“±πŸ“±

Now that the kids are nearing the end of the half-term, we want to know β€” how did your household really handle screen time over the past week? Drop your answer below πŸ‘‡

πŸ† Screens off β€” proper outdoor time
πŸ˜… Balance β€” some screens, some fresh air
πŸ“± Full screen mode, no shame

Whatever your score, one week of extra screen time can take a real toll on children's eyes. Increased close-up screen work is one of the biggest drivers of childhood myopia β€” and it's rising every year.

Watch out for:
πŸ‘€ Squinting or sitting close to the TV
πŸ‘€ Headaches or tired eyes after school
πŸ‘€ Difficulty seeing the board in class

Early intervention β€” including options like OrthoK β€” can slow myopia progression significantly. Book a children's eye examination via the link in bio πŸ‘†

This bank holiday, we're asking parents to give their children's eyes a proper rest πŸ‘οΈπŸŒΏ

With half term coming up, kids are about to spend a lot more time on tablets, phones, and screens. Research shows that excess screen time is one of the key drivers of rising myopia rates in children β€” and the earlier we act, the better.

Our tips for half term:
βœ… Encourage at least 2 hours of outdoor time daily
βœ… Teach children the 20-20-20 rule
βœ… Set screen-free windows before bedtime
βœ… Book a children's eye test if they haven't had one this year

If you've noticed your child squinting, sitting closer to the TV, or complaining of headaches β€” it's time for a check-up. Book via the link in bio πŸ‘†

May is Healthy Vision Month β€” a reminder that clear vision and healthy eyes are not the same thing πŸ‘οΈ

Over 50% of sight loss in the UK is preventable β€” yet millions of people go years without an eye examination. A comprehensive eye exam at The Vision Clinic goes far beyond checking your prescription.

We screen for:
πŸ”΅ Glaucoma β€” often completely symptom-free until significant damage has occurred
πŸ”΅ Diabetic retinopathy β€” the eyes can show signs of diabetes before a diagnosis
πŸ”΅ Age-related macular degeneration β€” early intervention makes a real difference
πŸ”΅ Myopia progression in children β€” and management options including OrthoK

The NHS recommends an eye test every 1–2 years. This May, prioritise your eye health β€” book your comprehensive examination via the link in bio πŸ‘†

This week marks World Retinoblastoma Awareness Week (10–16 May) β€” and as clinicians, we feel it's our responsibility to make sure every parent knows the signs of childhood eye cancer πŸ’œ

Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common eye cancer in children, typically diagnosed before the age of 6. With early detection, the survival rate exceeds 96%. But too many cases are caught late.

Know the signs:
βšͺ A white glow in the pupil in flash photos or dim lighting (leukocoria)
πŸ‘οΈ A squint β€” eyes not aligned
πŸ”΅ A change in the colour of one iris

The flash photo test: Take photos of your child with red-eye reduction switched OFF. Both eyes should show a red reflex. If you see white β€” seek help immediately.

If your child shows any of these signs, please see your GP or optometrist without delay. Our team is here if you have concerns.

Please share this post β€” awareness saves lives πŸ’œ

May is Children's Vision Month β€” and we want to talk about something every parent of a myopic child should know πŸ‘οΈ

If your child wears glasses or has been told they're short-sighted, the long summer holidays are the ideal time to start OrthoK (orthokeratology).

Here's why the holidays make all the difference:
βœ… No school pressure β€” your child can adjust at their own pace
βœ… Nightly wear during sleep means no glasses or lenses during the day
βœ… By September, they'll be ready for the new school year with clear, unaided vision
βœ… OrthoK has been shown to slow myopia progression by up to 50%

With 1 in 3 UK children now myopic β€” and numbers rising β€” early intervention really matters. The sooner you act, the better the outcomes.

πŸ“… Book a myopia consultation for your child this May β€” link in bio πŸ‘†
