Top Tips to Survive Hay Fever Effects on Eyes
The winter weather can impact our children’s (and our) eyes harshly. The sun is still there and its UV rays are always emitting, especially when the road is wet the rays are even made worse for our little ones’ eyes. Thus UV protection is still essential during winter months. If you and your children are often outdoors, sunglasses and/or a hat will help protect our eyes against both the dry winds and UV rays.
My Child Can See But Cannot Write Nor Read
In order to see clearly and process what we can see (to read or write), we need to have visual information processing skills. Good vision means we have a good set of eyes that can see clearly. Good visual information processing skill means being able to accurately and quickly interpret what we see. For example, when our children write or read in the classroom, it is important for them to quickly decode, understand, and remember the written material they are reading as well as being able to process what the teachers say.
How Can Parents Help Create Healthy Eye Environment?
Good vision is important for a child’s educational, physical and social development. It is important for parents to identify and recognise the possible symptoms of vision problems. One in five Australian children suffers from an undetected vision problem, or requires regular monitoring. Most of the children with eye problems are not aware that they have any eye problems, as they assume what they see is normal.
