hot wait until their child is
old enough to read before
taking him or her for an ejke
examination: Impaired vision
can keep your child from
learning quickly and well. I
Many parents, even when
they know their child has at|
eye problem, tend to ignose
it-they seem to believe the
child will outgrow it. Faulty
vision should not be ignored
because the eyes are a very
delicate part of the body and
they can easily become im-
paired for life if a disorder is
not corrected et an early age.
Experts at The Equitable Life
Assurance Society of the U.S.1
say that valuable time can be
lost while waiting, and the
older the child, the mow
difficult the correction.
According to an Equitable
spokesman, doctors have
found that a toddler as young
as 12 months can wear glasses
if they are made a part of his
or her dressing routine. And
even a child of four can do
eye exercises that arc made
to correct "cross-eye"
“lazy-eye.”
Now is a good time lit
have an eye doctor chedi
your child's vision. Remerfi'
