Children's Eye Doctors — Dedicated to Helping Kids See Clearly

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 Tucson pediatric eye doctor at Silverbell EyeCare.

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 Silverbell EyeCare will carefully examine their eyes and provide guidance to ensure your child's healthy vision.

Dr. Fuhr took the time and energy to solve my ongoing vision problem that other Optometrists have be... en unable (or unwilling) to take the time needed to understand and treat. Final grade: A+ for Dr. Fuhr, and all others in this office! Thank you.

Valeria was a huge help, and really nice 5/5 service. Displayed frames were a little pricey, but not... too bad with insurance. They've got some of the less pricey ones tucked away if you ask. Eye exam appointments had more availability than with some of the bigger stores around town so that's a big plus if you need glasses fast
