Pediatric Eye Care: Why Is It Important?

  • Concerned that your child's eyesight may be hindering their development?
  • Does your child's eyes appear misaligned?

Studies show that up to 10% of young children have vision problems. However, kids generally aren't aware there's an issue, and don't complain about their eyes. It is therefore crucial to detect the first signs of vision problems before complications arise.

Give them the clear vision and healthy eyes they deserve by visiting our Wentzville pediatric eye doctor at Wentzville Eye Center.

4 Signs Your Child May Have a Vision Problem

  • Trouble seeing electronic screens

    Your child sits very close, tilts their head or squints to better see TVs, computer screens and other electronic screens.

  • Difficulty reading or following moving objects

    Your child often loses their place while reading, or can't track a ball as it moves when playing sports.

  • Headaches & eye strain

    Your child complains of tired eyes or headaches after performing tasks that are visually intensive, such as reading or writing.

  • Missed milestones

    Your child may miss milestones such as crawling and walking, or show signs of poor depth perception.

For your child to successfully engage in sports and achieve their academic potential, they need to have healthy eyes and clear vision. The experienced and caring children's eye doctors at Wentzville Eye Center will carefully examine their eyes and provide guidance to ensure your child's healthy vision.

I have been going there for years and am very happy with Dr. Kilgore and her staff.

They were kind and efficient. My previous eye care place had me jumping three+ months of hoops and I... ended up with the wrong prescription for my glasses that left me dizzy with poor depth perception. Wentzville Eye Center fixed this after one visit. I was able to get a new prescription and and new glasses ordered in my first visit. A few weeks later my glasses arrived. Both times the staff was fun and professional, and put myself and my husband at ease. It was a genuinely pleasant experience, and I'd be happy to go back. 10/10 Would Recommend
