Vision is an integral part of helping children grow and discover knowledge. Our visual system develops from black-and-white blurred images at the age of 0 to full vision at the age of 8, during which the eye may become amblyopic if visual function is impaired, causing irreversible damage.
香港理工大學有研究發現,有61.5%的12歲兒童患有近視,
視力問題可能會阻礙他們在社交活動及學業上發展。而且一些眼疾如弱視,沒有明顯表面的徵狀,小朋友們又意識不到自己有視力問題,如果沒有定期進行眼睛檢查,則可能幾個月或幾年都無法診斷出問題。所以儘早發現問題,可以有助避免及減輕眼睛問題。實際上,當孩子的視力仍在發展期間 (最高達7或8歲),視力問題就更容易調理。
