Vision Abnormalities in Infants

Vision problems in infants are both common and easily treatable if addressed early by an ophthalmologist. In fact, there is a public health care program that allows parents to see a certified eye doctor with little to no monetary charge run by the American Optometric Association called InfantSee®. This program is designed to ensure that eye and vision care become an integral part of infant wellness care in order to improve a child's quality of life.

Famous quotes containing the words vision and/or infants:

    Thinking is seeing.... Every human science is based on deduction, which is a slow process of seeing by which we work up from the effect to the cause; or, in a wider sense, all poetry like every work of art proceeds from a swift vision of things.
    Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    For infants and toddlers learning and living are the same thing. If they feel secure, treasured, loved, their own energy and curiosity will bring them new understanding and new skills.
    Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
