Specsavers optometrists are encouraging all kids to have a routine eye test to ensure they are heading back into the classroom with happy, healthy eyes. 

Staring at screens and being indoors for extended periods of time can increase the risk of myopia or becoming short-sighted, which results in the eyes only being able to focus well on close objects, while more distant objects appear blurred. 

If you’re worried about your child’s eyes or would like to book an eye test ahead of the school year, visit www.specsavers.com.au/stores
