Summer can lead to the realization that your vision isn't as sharp as it used to be.

“A lot of patients come in thinking it’s just seasonal irritation, but we often find their prescription has changed or they’re dealing with eye strain and other possible causes as well,” says Dr. Randall Bumsted, Optometrist at Simon Eye in Glen Mills. “Late spring into early summer is when people start noticing those differences because they’re outside more and using their eyes differently.”

When you're prepping to send your children back to school this season, don't forget one important item on the checklist: their vision.

This back-to-school season, learn about the signs of vision problems, the importance of sports eye protection, and why a comprehensive eye exam can help your child start the school year seeing their best.
