You can be confident that your child’s eye care is our priority – from helping to protect their vision and regularly monitoring their eyesight, to sourcing frame ranges that we know they’ll love (and want to wear).
As children grow, their eyes develop, which means their vision can change. That’s why it’s so important to have your child’s eyesight checked on a regular basis.
