The NHS recommends vision screening at age 4 to 5 years. We want to identify children with reduced vision in one or both eyes. The aim is to detect any problems early so your child can receive effective treatment. Vision continues to develop from birth to around 8 years of age.
Sometimes, despite all your efforts, your child may still miss a step in vision development. Therefore, vision examinations at ages 3 and 5 are important to detect and treat these problems before a child begins school.
Believe it or not, a child should get their first eye exam when theyre 6-12 months old; thats considered infancy, says CooperVision Senior Manager of Myopia Management Dr. Justin Kwan, OD, FAAO. From there, they need another at age 3, prior to entering kindergarten and every year thereafter.
Before the test, your child may be given special eyedrops that widen their pupils so the back of their eyes can be examined more clearly. Your child will be asked to look at a light, or read letters on a chart if theyre old enough, while different lenses are placed in front of their eyes.
Vision screening is usually carried out in your childs school. However, this does not happen in all areas. If your childs vision is not checked at school, take them to your local opticians for an eye examination. Read more about vision screening for 4 to 5 year olds (PDF, 1.54Mb).

What should I bring to my eye exam? Your Vision Insurance Card and Drivers License: To verify your coverage, youll need a copy of your insurance card. Your Eyewear: Bring your contacts or glasses along when you see the eye doctor.
If you dont have any symptoms or vision problems, doctors recommend getting regular eye exams based on your age: Ages 20 to 39: Every 5 years. Ages 40 to 54: Every 2 to 4 years. Ages 55 to 64: Every 1 to 3 years.
A child should be able to see the 20/40 line by age 3 or 4 and the 20/30 line by age 5. If you test your child several times on different days and your child cannot see the expected line of print or cannot see the same line with each eye, he or she should be evaluated by a physician.
