Eye Exams · Lexington, KY
Gentle, thorough eye exams that look beyond 20/20, so your child can thrive in class and in sports.Walk-ins welcome.
Children do not always say when something looks wrong. Dr. Haddad checks more than clarity: how the eyes focus, track and work together, and whether they are developing in good health. Most vision insurances and Kentucky Medicaid plans accepted.
How the eyes track and focus while reading, not only 20/20 vision. Children who avoid reading may be farsighted (hyperopia), which a school screening can miss.
Solutions for strain from classroom screens and devices.
Early detection helps both eyes develop full visual strength.
If your child is becoming nearsighted, strategies to slow its progression.
A children's eye exam is a good idea if your child:
What to expect
The American Optometric Association recommends a first comprehensive eye exam between 6 and 12 months of age, again at age 3, and every year once school begins.
Children do not always say when something looks wrong. A school screening catches major clarity issues, while a comprehensive exam also checks focusing, eye health and visual skills. A prescription that gets stronger every year is a reason to ask about myopia management.
Most vision insurances are accepted, along with Kentucky Medicaid plans including UnitedHealthcare Community Plan (Medicaid), Passport, WellCare, Aetna Better Health of Kentucky and Humana Healthy Horizons. Call or text 859‑216‑2660 and we will check your plan.
Dr. Haddad evaluates focusing, eye health, the retina and internal structures, and peripheral awareness using advanced diagnostic technology. These tests go beyond a school vision screening.
There's no single age. It depends on your child's eyes and how ready they are to handle and care for lenses. Many teens and some younger, motivated kids do well. A contact lens fitting includes hands-on training, and for nearsightedness that keeps increasing, ask about myopia management.
