Children’s Eye Care at Suraj Eye Institute
A child’s eyes are still developing, and many sight problems are silent — a young child rarely complains, because they don’t know what “normal” vision looks like. This is why early detection matters so much: conditions caught in the first weeks, months or years of life can often be treated completely, while delay can lead to permanent, irreversible loss of vision.
Our paediatric eye care team looks after children at every age, providing newborn and premature-baby screening, spectacle prescription, amblyopia (lazy-eye) therapy, squint evaluation and surgery, myopia control, and the management of childhood glaucoma, cataract, retinal disease and eye injuries.
When in doubt, get it checked. A white or cloudy pupil, a turned or wandering eye, constant watering or light sensitivity, or a child who sits very close or rubs the eyes — all deserve a prompt examination.
