Eye Injury

Information - Vision

Vision

  • The main concern is whether the vision is damaged.
  • Older children can tell us if their vision is blurred or out of focus. Test them at home by covering each eye in turn and having them look at a distant object.
  • Children less than 5 years old usually need to be examined to rule out serious injuries affecting vision even if the injury seems minor.
