Pediatric Eye Care: Why Is It Important?

  • Concerned that your child's eyesight may be hindering their development?
  • Does your child's eyes appear misaligned?

Studies show that up to 10% of young children have vision problems. However, kids generally aren't aware there's an issue, and don't complain about their eyes. It is therefore crucial to detect the first signs of vision problems before complications arise.

Give them the clear vision and healthy eyes they deserve by visiting our Kirksville pediatric eye doctor at International Eyecare Center - Kirksville.

4 Signs Your Child May Have a Vision Problem

  • Trouble seeing electronic screens

    Your child sits very close, tilts their head or squints to better see TVs, computer screens and other electronic screens.

  • Difficulty reading or following moving objects

    Your child often loses their place while reading, or can't track a ball as it moves when playing sports.

  • Headaches & eye strain

    Your child complains of tired eyes or headaches after performing tasks that are visually intensive, such as reading or writing.

  • Missed milestones

    Your child may miss milestones such as crawling and walking, or show signs of poor depth perception.

For your child to successfully engage in sports and achieve their academic potential, they need to have healthy eyes and clear vision. The experienced and caring children's eye doctors at International Eyecare Center - Kirksville will carefully examine their eyes and provide guidance to ensure your child's healthy vision.

Steven - Mar 14, 2026
The office is nice and so is the staff...that is one star for each...they promised glasses in 7 to 1... 0 days and it took much longer. I paid for shipping. When the glasses finally arrived, the prescription was all wrong. I put them on and everything was BLURRY. How do you screw that up ? I paid for high index lenses and paid for shipping since I live 40 miles away, and the glasses are USELESS !!! I would avoid this place if I were you. I wrote this review out of frustration and I regret doing this. Mistakes happen...a supervisor named Ashley reached out to me and fixed the situation...I should have mentioned how nice the doctor and staff are. My humble apologies for posting an unfair review in anger. 5 stars to international eye care in lirksville missouri. Thank you to Ashley and the staff for being understanding and professional. Sincerely, Steven Louis Strother
