If not addressed early, this can negatively affect a child\u2019s learning, concentration, and the development of their motor and visual skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The severity of vision impairment in children can range from mild to complex. Symptoms may include difficulty focusing on the classroom board, holding objects excessively close to see them clearly, or constantly squinting to make out details.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you notice any signs of vision impairment in your child, do not hesitate to book a consultation with us at Bariq Kids Eye Centers. We provide accurate diagnoses using the latest technology, along with effective treatment plans to ensure your child\u2019s healthy and safe visual development.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"callaction-contact-box\" ><div class=\"overlay \" style=\"background:transparent\"><\/div><div class=\"btns expanded\"><a href=\"tel:+201288880698\" style=\"color:#fafafa;background:#366c94\" class=\"reserve-now\"><svg style=\"fill:#fafafa;\" height=\"20px\" width=\"20px\" version=\"1.1\" id=\"Capa_1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" viewBox=\"0 0 473.806 473.806\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><g>\t<g>\t\t<path d=\"M374.456,293.506c-9.7-10.1-21.4-15.5-33.8-15.5c-12.3,0-24.1,5.3-34.2,15.4l-31.6,31.5c-2.6-1.4-5.2-2.7-7.7-4\n\t\t\tc-3.6-1.8-7-3.5-9.9-5.3c-29.6-18.8-56.5-43.3-82.3-75c-12.5-15.8-20.9-29.1-27-42.6c8.2-7.5,15.8-15.3,23.2-22.8\n\t\t\tc2.8-2.8,5.6-5.7,8.4-8.5c21-21,21-48.2,0-69.2l-27.3-27.3c-3.1-3.1-6.3-6.3-9.3-9.5c-6-6.2-12.3-12.6-18.8-18.6\n\t\t\tc-9.7-9.6-21.3-14.7-33.5-14.7s-24,5.1-34,14.7c-0.1,0.1-0.1,0.1-0.2,0.2l-34,34.3c-12.8,12.8-20.1,28.4-21.7,46.5\n\t\t\tc-2.4,29.2,6.2,56.4,12.8,74.2c16.2,43.7,40.4,84.2,76.5,127.6c43.8,52.3,96.5,93.6,156.7,122.7c23,10.9,53.7,23.8,88,26\n\t\t\tc2.1,0.1,4.3,0.2,6.3,0.2c23.1,0,42.5-8.3,57.7-24.8c0.1-0.2,0.3-0.3,0.4-0.5c5.2-6.3,11.2-12,17.5-18.1c4.3-4.1,8.7-8.4,13-12.9\n\t\t\tc9.9-10.3,15.1-22.3,15.1-34.6c0-12.4-5.3-24.3-15.4-34.3L374.456,293.506z M410.256,398.806\n\t\t\tC410.156,398.806,410.156,398.906,410.256,398.806c-3.9,4.2-7.9,8-12.2,12.2c-6.5,6.2-13.1,12.7-19.3,20\n\t\t\tc-10.1,10.8-22,15.9-37.6,15.9c-1.5,0-3.1,0-4.6-0.1c-29.7-1.9-57.3-13.5-78-23.4c-56.6-27.4-106.3-66.3-147.6-115.6\n\t\t\tc-34.1-41.1-56.9-79.1-72-119.9c-9.3-24.9-12.7-44.3-11.2-62.6c1-11.7,5.5-21.4,13.8-29.7l34.1-34.1c4.9-4.6,10.1-7.1,15.2-7.1\n\t\t\tc6.3,0,11.4,3.8,14.6,7c0.1,0.1,0.2,0.2,0.3,0.3c6.1,5.7,11.9,11.6,18,17.9c3.1,3.2,6.3,6.4,9.5,9.7l27.3,27.3\n\t\t\tc10.6,10.6,10.6,20.4,0,31c-2.9,2.9-5.7,5.8-8.6,8.6c-8.4,8.6-16.4,16.6-25.1,24.4c-0.2,0.2-0.4,0.3-0.5,0.5\n\t\t\tc-8.6,8.6-7,17-5.2,22.7c0.1,0.3,0.2,0.6,0.3,0.9c7.1,17.2,17.1,33.4,32.3,52.7l0.1,0.1c27.6,34,56.7,60.5,88.8,80.8\n\t\t\tc4.1,2.6,8.3,4.7,12.3,6.7c3.6,1.8,7,3.5,9.9,5.3c0.4,0.2,0.8,0.5,1.2,0.7c3.4,1.7,6.6,2.5,9.9,2.5c8.3,0,13.5-5.2,15.2-6.9\n\t\t\tl34.2-34.2c3.4-3.4,8.8-7.5,15.1-7.5c6.2,0,11.3,3.9,14.4,7.3c0.1,0.1,0.1,0.1,0.2,0.2l55.1,55.1\n\t\t\tC420.456,377.706,420.456,388.206,410.256,398.806z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<path d=\"M256.056,112.706c26.2,4.4,50,16.8,69,35.8s31.3,42.8,35.8,69c1.1,6.6,6.8,11.2,13.3,11.2c0.8,0,1.5-0.1,2.3-0.2\n\t\t\tc7.4-1.2,12.3-8.2,11.1-15.6c-5.4-31.7-20.4-60.6-43.3-83.5s-51.8-37.9-83.5-43.3c-7.4-1.2-14.3,3.7-15.6,11\n\t\t\tS248.656,111.506,256.056,112.706z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<path d=\"M473.256,209.006c-8.9-52.2-33.5-99.7-71.3-137.5s-85.3-62.4-137.5-71.3c-7.3-1.3-14.2,3.7-15.5,11\n\t\t\tc-1.2,7.4,3.7,14.3,11.1,15.6c46.6,7.9,89.1,30,122.9,63.7c33.8,33.8,55.8,76.3,63.7,122.9c1.1,6.6,6.8,11.2,13.3,11.2\n\t\t\tc0.8,0,1.5-0.1,2.3-0.2C469.556,223.306,474.556,216.306,473.256,209.006z\"><\/path>\n\t<\/g><\/g><\/svg>Contact Us<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background:#366c94\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/201288880698\" class=\"wts-now\"><svg style=\"fill:#ffffff;\" width=\"25\" height=\"25\" aria-hidden=\"true\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" height=\"1em\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\"><path d=\"M380.9 97.1C339 55.1 283.2 32 223.9 32c-122.4 0-222 99.6-222 222 0 39.1 10.2 77.3 29.6 111L0 480l117.7-30.9c32.4 17.7 68.9 27 106.1 27h.1c122.3 0 224.1-99.6 224.1-222 0-59.3-25.2-115-67.1-157zm-157 341.6c-33.2 0-65.7-8.9-94-25.7l-6.7-4-69.8 18.3L72 359.2l-4.4-7c-18.5-29.4-28.2-63.3-28.2-98.2 0-101.7 82.8-184.5 184.6-184.5 49.3 0 95.6 19.2 130.4 54.1 34.8 34.9 56.2 81.2 56.1 130.5 0 101.8-84.9 184.6-186.6 184.6zm101.2-138.2c-5.5-2.8-32.8-16.2-37.9-18-5.1-1.9-8.8-2.8-12.5 2.8-3.7 5.6-14.3 18-17.6 21.8-3.2 3.7-6.5 4.2-12 1.4-32.6-16.3-54-29.1-75.5-66-5.7-9.8 5.7-9.1 16.3-30.3 1.8-3.7.9-6.9-.5-9.7-1.4-2.8-12.5-30.1-17.1-41.2-4.5-10.8-9.1-9.3-12.5-9.5-3.2-.2-6.9-.2-10.6-.2-3.7 0-9.7 1.4-14.8 6.9-5.1 5.6-19.4 19-19.4 46.3 0 27.3 19.9 53.7 22.6 57.4 2.8 3.7 39.1 59.7 94.8 83.8 35.2 15.2 49 16.5 66.6 13.9 10.7-1.6 32.8-13.4 37.4-26.4 4.6-13 4.6-24.1 3.2-26.4-1.3-2.5-5-3.9-10.5-6.6z\"\/><\/svg>Whatsapp<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<h2><b>What are the causes of vision impairment in children?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vision impairment in children arises from various factors that affect eye health and vision.
