Nowadays, many children have vision problems such as myopia, amblyopia, and strabismus, and most of them need to wear glasses for correction. However, parents have relatively little knowledge about glasses fitting and do not know the process and precautions for fitting glasses to their children. So, where should babies go to get glasses?
If you want to get glasses for your baby, it's best to go to the glasses center at an ophthalmic hospital. Because before children get glasses, a systematic eye examination is required to determine their eye condition before they can get glasses fitted. If the child is already wearing glasses, parents should take the child to a regular eye hospital every year for vision and eye examinations, which can detect eye problems as early as possible for timely treatment.
There are many types of frames and lenses on the market now, and there are significant price differences. Many parents pursue price when fitting their children's glasses, thinking that expensive glasses are the best. In fact, when matching glasses for children, one should choose the ones that are most suitable for them, not just expensive glasses.
If children under the age of 10 are wearing glasses, it is best to choose a frame with soft edges and a protective nose pad. If the child is over 10 years old, they can choose a full frame frame frame. The closer the size of the frame is to the actual pupillary distance, the better, which can prevent the optical center of the lens from moving inward due to the frame being too large.
