Children's eye care

Pediatric ophthalmology in Mulund West.

Age-appropriate eye assessments for children, delivered with patience, clear explanations, and a family-centred approach.

When to consult

Early eye care helps children see and learn with confidence.

Children do not always describe vision problems clearly. A pediatric eye assessment can help when there are concerns about vision, eye alignment, schoolwork, eye movements, or a family history of eye conditions.

  • Squinting, sitting too close, or frequent eye rubbing
  • Eyes that appear misaligned or move unusually
  • Myopia, amblyopia, or spectacle-related concerns
  • ROP screening and treatment planning when advised
