If your child is below 5 years of age, watch out for these 5 signs which might signal that your child needs an urgent ophthalmic check up!
1. Viewing TV too closely/reading a book by holding it close to face
2. Squinting eyes to see clearly
3. Constant rubbing of eyes/ blinking
4. Deviation of one or both the eyes
5. Difficulty catching a ball/ gauging distance
Remember, a child will never complain of visual disturbances by themselves!
As parents, we have to be vigilant in picking up these subtle signals and getting their ophthalmic check-up at the earliest!
