Protect Your Children's Sight
A good vision is key in supporting your kids’ everyday activities. Whether it’s learning in school or playing outdoors, help your kids become their best selves and prevent myopia by getting them an eye examination early.
Here are some ways you can help protect your child's sight:
Look out for common signs of visual discomfort
While it’s easy for adults to recognize discomfort in their eyes, kids may not be aware of theirs. If you notice your kids are often squinting, covering one of their eyes or have frequent headaches, it might be time to send them for an eye test.
Check your kids’ vision regularly
As your kids continue to grow, their vision changes every year. Ensure they go for a thorough eye examination regularly to spot any vision problems during their development stage and have an eye care professional provide suitable solutions like Nikon’s ultra comfort and lightweight ophthalmic lenses. These lenses are made with a super thin material to let your kids carry on with their activities worry-free.
Take a break outside
A healthy amount of natural sunlight is a good way to prevent myopia for the kids. Encourage them to play outdoors for an hour or two each day to give their eyes a well needed break. Just remember to block out the UV rays with a pair of Nikon Transitions® lenses! These lenses will automatically adjust themselves to give your kids the right amount of tint outdoors.
Block out the blue light¹
Kids spend significant time indoors and outdoors, exposed to UV and blue light¹ emitted by the sun, artificial lighting and also digital devices. Protect your kids’ vision from UV and filter blue light¹ using lenses equipped with SeeCoat Next Blue coating.
1. Blue light between 380nm to 500nm (with blue-violet light between 400 and 455nm as stated by ISO TR 20772:2018).
