[quote=Anonymous]Lots of people blaming screens, which I can say is not the case for my kid. My daughter was flagged by the ped at 15th month visit (had never watched a screen at that point) for a severe astigmatism in one eye that was causing amblyopia. They held something up and took a photo of her eyes. My older child had not had that done, so a newish technology at that time. (Kids are now older.) If amblyopia is not caught and treated early, kids will have permanently reduced corrected vision in one eye. My daughter did patching and wore glasses from age 2 on. They are just much better at catching issues then they used to be is a big part of it.[/quote]
