Children at Vision Express
Four good reasons to get your child's eyes checked at Vision Express – book online today »
- 1 in 5 children in the UK have an undetected eye problem
- Vision and learning are closely related - 80% of what children learn is through vision
- Eye tests at schools are no longer mandatory
- Under 16s are entitled to a free eye test and a contribution towards glasses on the NHS
As most schools no longer offer eye tests, fewer children are having their eyes checked regularly. That's why we want to make it easy and affordable to ensure your child's eyes are being properly cared for.
Vision and learning are closely related, so diagnosing problems early is extremely important to ensure that children of all ages reach their full academic potential. We recommend that every child's eyes should be checked at least once a year, as part of their overall health regime.
Our childrens' range of frames offer exceptional durability and comfort; not to mention availability of frames with benefits such as sprung hinges and memory metals. However, it's not all about comfort and safety - we want children to love wearing their glasses too. Our collections have been hand picked to offer the latest fashions with exclusive collections from brands including Ted Baker.
In this section you can browse our childrens' ranges and read about the help and offers available for purchasing childrens' glasses at Vision Express. There's also a useful question and answer section to help you with questions concerning childrens' eye care, and you can always call your local store with any further questions or concerns.
