My 7 yr old complains that his eyes hurt and sometimes of headaches. I am thinking he may need glasses. I also catch him squinting his eyes every once in a while. How do I know if he needs glasses? Also do pediatricians test for this or does he need to see an eye dr? Thanks!

Hi - I went to register my son for Kindergarten today and was told he must have an eye exam in order to register. I'm fine with this, howver we don't have vision insurance so I'll be paying out of pocket. Do you have a recommendation of where I could obtain an eye exam for kindergarten. It can be an optometrist or opthamologist and I'm assuming the optometrist may be cheaper? Thanks for the advice! :)

I need to get an eye exam but my medical insurance does not cover vision care. I wondered if any of you know approximately how much an eye exam costs. I'm assuming that since an opthalmologist is an MD, it is more costly to see one rather than an optometrist. I also wondered if any of you have been to the optometrists located at, Lens Crafters, Costco, Sears, etc.? Do you have any recommendations? I'm located in the San Rafael area. Thanks so much.

I just want to make sure I understand what my health benefits actually mean... lol 1. "considered at 100% of the allowed amount, no copay" Does this mean that this service is completely covered by the insurance & I won't have to worry about paying a dime?? 2. "$250 inpatient hospital deductible per admission. Benefits are considered at 100% of the allowed amount." And this means that if I am admitted to the hospital I will have to pay the hospital the $250 deductible, while everything else is completely covered by the...

Hey Guys, I need some advice /opinions here, sorry it's kind of long. My two sons, ages 2 and 4, go to a home daycare with 3 other kids. The lady who watches them is the grandmother of one of the girls there. Well the girl started complaining that her eyes were burning and she ran a slight fever one day. The next day she woke up with her eyes crusted shut with yellow/green gunk. Her eyes were swollen but not pink. So mom took her to the doctor, who then sent her to an eye doctor. Both said that is was probably just her sinuses...

My daughter is 8 years old. When she gets excited or is playing an imaginary game her eyes cross. We have taken her to the eye doctor twice and both times he could not get her eyes to cross and her vision was fine. He said there were no issues. HOWEVER, both her teachers from 1st and 2nd grade have been disturbed by it so much that they have emailed me about taking her to a doctor. I have several photos where her eyes cross when we take the picture. Should I take her to another doctor?? Is there anything to worry about? I read somewhere...
