Happy 15th Birthday to InfantSEE from the Archives & Museum of Optometry! On June 8, 2005, the American Optometric Association invited members to the "birth" of the InfantSEE® program. The AMO still holds the original invitation-an infant blanket and diaper-pin. #tbt #InfantSEE

Babies learn to see over a period of time. The ability to focus their eyes, move them accurately, and use them together as a team must be learned. They also need to learn how to use the visual information the eyes send to their brain in order to understand the world around them.

The average child takes in approximately 3 times the annual UV exposure of the average adult and up to 80 percent of their lifetime exposure occurs before age 20. The American Optometric Association recommends wearing lenses that block 99 to 100 percent of UV-A and UV-B rays.

At birth, vision is abuzz with visual stimulation. Baby has not yet developed the ability to easily tell the difference between two targets or move their eyes between the two images. Their primary focus is on objects 8"-10" from their face or the distance to parent's face.

Based on the latest COVID-19 updates, the CDC recommends doctors of optometry postpone routine eyecare visits while prioritizing urgent and emergency visits and procedures to ensure staff and patient safety. For details, visit the CDC's resource page: bit.ly/3b8yn0v

Children can be unaware that their sight is compromised because that's the way they've always seen the world. Does your child have the visual abilities they need to grow and learn? Ask your doctor of optometry. #2020EyeExam
