The science, visually
Drag the slider and watch what years of close-up screen work and reading quietly do. Then see what correction changes.
Normal eye. Light from the board focuses exactly on the retina. The board is sharp.
With sustained near work, the eye elongates. Light now focuses in front of the retina — distant things blur. This is myopia, and it is structural, not a habit.
Exactly the years of the heaviest reading and screen time. Most parents discover it only after months of squinting, headaches and copied board-work.
Outdoor time, myopia-control treatment and the right spectacles change the curve. That is why SKIDS screens annually — at school, and in clinic.
He won't. Children assume everyone sees the way they do. Screening is the only honest witness — and SKIDS makes it routine.
Your child's vision, year by year
Vision is being built by the brain. Amblyopia (lazy eye) must be found before 7 — after that, the window to treat it well begins to close.
Photo-screening with the Welch Allyn Spot Vision Screener reads the eyes in seconds — no reading letters required, no cooperation needed.
The highest-risk stretch. Annual checks, dioptre tracking, outdoor-time prescription and myopia-control discussion when progression begins.
Prescriptions stabilise, but the record keeps working — one continuous history that travels with your child into adult eye care.
How it works
SKIDS runs vision screening in schools, in clinic — and soon, at home. One pathway, one record, wherever the signal first appears.
SKIDS runs whole-child screening camps in partner schools. The Spot Vision Screener reads eight measurements in seconds per child — painless, contactless, no letters to read. Findings flow to your parent report the same day.
At your child's schoolFlagged at school or booked directly — full refraction with the SKIDS pediatric optometrist, myopia-control discussion, amblyopia and squint review, spectacles dispensed in-clinic, follow-up cadence set.
