Children’s Eyecare

At Millicans & Mansfield, we know that children’s eyes need special attention. Early eye care is crucial—not just for clear vision, but for their development, learning, and confidence. That’s why we provide thorough, gentle eye examinations tailored specifically for children of all ages.

Why Children’s Eye Tests Matter

Children often don’t realise they have vision problems, and symptoms can be subtle. Regular eye exams help spot issues like squints, lazy eye (amblyopia), or focusing difficulties before they affect school performance and daily life.

Caring for Growing Eyes

Children’s eyes are constantly developing, and sometimes conditions like short-sightedness can progress quickly. We keep a close eye on your child’s vision during their check-ups to ensure they receive the right care at the right time. For more on managing myopia, you can visit our Myopia Control page.

Colour and Reading Comfort: The Benefits of Colorimetry
