Gaziantep Private Anka Hospital Ophthalmology Specialist Op. Dr. Erdal Kaydu stated that eye health is an important issue affecting the success of school-age children and warned parents to take their children for regular eye examinations.
Pointing out that children's eye health has a great impact on their educational success, Ophthalmologist Op. Dr. Erdal Kaydu said, “Eye health is the main factor in the learning process of children. Children who cannot see clearly may not be able to select the writings on the board, may have difficulty reading books and may have difficulty focusing on lessons. At this stage, the attention of both parents and teachers is very important. Children often do not realize or express their vision problems. However, symptoms such as frequent headaches, squinting, not being able to see the writing on the board, having difficulty reading a book may be signs of eye problems. When such symptoms are observed, an ophthalmologist should be consulted immediately. Eye problems diagnosed early can be solved with simple interventions and precautions, and the child's social and educational life will not be negatively affected.”
Stating that eye screenings are vital for the future success of children, Dr. Kaydu said, “Lazy eye, strabismus, myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism are the most common problems in children. Early diagnosis of these problems is of great importance.”
