Eye care
Choosing the Right eye wear for kids
An eye problem can be
suspected in a child, if the
child squeezes or rubs his/her
eyes often, bump into things,
have problems with eye-hand
co-ordination such as
catching a ball, sits closer to
the television or brings pages
of a note too close to read/
write, has difficulty concentrating, complains of headaches and
if the child is on long term medications, such as steroids. These
should trigger an alarm for an eye examination.
For those kids with refractive errors, selecting the right
eyewear is essential for better fit, comfort, protection, function
and fashion. Children are not merely small adults. Their facial
features are quite different from an adult. For instance, their
crest height is smaller while their frontal and splay angles are
larger. Hence, spectacle frames for children must be selected
considering the following factors and not just based on aesthetics.
1. The frame must provide a correct fit, anatomically
2. It should cover the eye adequately and place the lens in
proper position
3. It should be stable, rigid and strong
4. It should not inhibit the natural development of nasal
structure (the nose)
Unfortunately, many paediatric frames are just scaled-down
versions of adult frames and not age nor anatomically
appropriate. A regular bridge plastic frame with a negative
projection is suitable for underdeveloped nasal structure as in
infants and toddler while a keyhole bridge is useful for older
children. Metal frames with plastic bridges and curled sides
may also be selected for young children.
Spectacle lens for kids must have a high impact resistance,
safety being a concern. Lens materials such as Polycarbonate,
Trivex and MR 8 are suitable, owing to its high impact resistance,
UV protection and light weight.
Choosing the right frame and lens is just not enough! It is
also important to make proper on-eye measurements to ensure
maximum visual benefit and to minimise unwanted prismatic
effect which may lead to eye strain and fatigue.
An Optometrist can guide you in making the right choice
for your kid. After all, every kid deserves the best!
