Story

Visual development occurs up until approximately age 9. Diagnosis of ocular disease must occur at an early age to avoid permanent visual deficits. Even intermittent or asymptomatic conditions can damage the visual system and must be addressed during childhood. Early intervention saves vision and demands an experienced and adept examiner. Communicating with a child requires special unique skills and training, as well as a good deal of patience and flexibility.

At Pediatric Eye Consultants of North Florida, we have adapted our office and our personnel to provide a fun and friendly environment in which children can feel at ease. We are comfortable with non-verbal children, children with developmental delays and those with physical or sensory handicaps. Each child’s needs are met individually and with utmost concern.
