As parents, we celebrate every milestone—first steps, first words, first day of school. But what about your child’s first eye exam? Vision plays a critical role in learning, social interactions, and overall development, yet many parents in San Gabriel don’t realize just how essential early eye care is. At Vizen Optometric Center, we’re here to make pediatric eye care a seamless and reassuring experience for families, ensuring your child’s vision is set up for success.

Strabismus, commonly known as "crossed eyes," is a condition where the eyes do not align properly. One eye may turn inward, outward, upward, or downward while the other eye focuses on a target. This misalignment can cause problems with depth perception, double vision, and even vision loss if left untreated. Fortunately, advances in eye care have made treatment options like vision therapy highly effective in addressing strabismus. At Vizen Optometric Center, we help patients regain visual alignment and function through personalized treatment plans.

Visual  processing disorder is a neurological condition that affects an individual's ability to accurately interpret and make sense of the visual information they receive. This disorder is not related to issues with the eyes or vision itself, but rather with the brain's ability to process and understand visual stimuli.

Dry Eye Syndrome (DES) is a common condition that occurs when your eyes do not have enough tears for adequate lubrication. It can lead to visual symptoms such as redness, grittiness, burning sensation, watery eyes or even blurred vision.

Dry eye is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when your eyes fail to produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly, leading to discomfort, irritation, and even vision problems. The causes of dry eye can vary, ranging from environmental factors like dry air, wind, and smoke to underlying medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disorders, and Sjögren's syndrome.

The success of vision therapy hinges on the plasticity of the brain—the ability of the brain to change and adapt.
