As the new school year approaches, there's more to prepare than pencils and backpacks. Vision is one of the most important tools children rely on in the classroom—and yet it’s often overlooked. At Premier Vision Care Optometrists, we help families in Uniontown stay ahead with comprehensive back-to-school eye exams, tailored eyewear, and contact lens options for kids and teens.

Why Back-to-School Eye Exams Matter

It’s estimated that up to 80% of classroom learning happens through the eyes. From reading the board to completing assignments and using screens, children need clear, comfortable vision to succeed. Unfortunately, many vision issues go undetected until they start affecting academic performance.

Some children may struggle with:

1. Squinting or tilting their head while reading
2. Frequent headaches or eye strain
3. Avoiding books or close-up tasks
4. Trouble focusing or staying engaged in class

A back-to-school eye exam is the best way to identify these issues early. Unlike basic school screenings, a comprehensive eye exam evaluates more than just clarity—it checks eye health, tracking, focusing, and how well both eyes work together.

Eyeglasses That Kids Love to Wear

If your child needs corrective lenses, finding the right fit can make all the difference. Our optical team takes the time to help kids choose frames that are both comfortable and confidence-boosting. We offer lightweight, durable options made for active lifestyles—perfect for playgrounds and gym class.

Kids and teens will find something they love among our wide selection of modern, colorful, and stylish frames. Our staff is always happy to help families navigate frame fit, lens options, and coatings that reduce glare or protect against UV.

Contact Lenses for Teens on the Go

For older children and teens who want more freedom from glasses, contact lenses are a great option. Whether for sports, confidence, or just convenience, contacts can be a game-changer.

We offer:

1. Daily disposables for hygiene and ease
2. Soft lenses designed for first-time wearers
3. Instruction on lens care and safety

Many young patients find contacts easier to manage than expected. We take the time to ensure they feel comfortable and confident from their first fitting.
