Obviously, the Doctors cannot ask the child “which is better one or two?
subjective testing involving detailed questioning and patient responses used in older children and adults are not practical with younger kids. However, we are fortunate to have many objective testing methods at our disposal. Even with very little responsiveness, other than being awake with their eyes open, the Doctor can evaluate the efficiency and balance of eye movements, their approximate prescription and balance between the eyes and evaluate the health of their eyes. In some cases where history or testing warrants it, drops may need to be used to more thoroughly evaluate the patients visual system. The need for use of drops in children will be discussed by the Doctor and only used with approval of the parent or guardian. Once again, if naps are still a big part or your childs day please try to schedule their appointment as soon after their nap as possible. Children due for a nap tend have more difficulty during the examination.
