Is your child's eyesight getting worse? It could be due to o line learning, experts say. Despite the lack of evidence that increased screentime leads to increased myopia, some studies are linking inline learning to rapidly worsening myopia. We have see in our office an uptick in the number of kids developing nearsightedness at an earlier age. We agree that it may not be the amount of screentime, but the loss of other activities such outdoor play. ... It's recommended that kids play outside at least 2 hours/day, 14 hours per week, which will help to delay the onset of myopia and therefore the degree of myopia. We have programs to slow down the progression and avoid getting stronger and thicker glasses every few most to a year. Give us a call today as every diopter matters!!!650-593-1661. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1878344771767/

Kiddos need three eye exams with an eye doctor before age five in addition to pediatrician screenings. The first exam is between 6-12 months, then at three and five years, and every year after that during school. E.G. is here for his Infantsee Exam and looking at finger puppets with Dr. Hong. to see how proud his dad is! (Posted with permission) These eye exams are important so that we make sure that visual development is on track. 80% of learning comes through visio...n and when eyes aren’t working properly, reading, learning, attention and sports performance can be negatively impacted! . . . . . #infantsee #trackingskills #firsteyeexam #visionandlearning #visionskills #12monthsold #cutebaby #eyeexamsforkids #sancarlos #sancarlosmoms #sanmateocounty #babiesarebeautiful @jungejason See more

March 2021 is Brain Injury Awareness Month! A couple of years ago Dr. Hong had the pleasure of interviewing SF Giant’s first baseman Brandon Belt at the Inaugural California Concussion Symposium. He talked about the importance of vision training in his journey back from multiple concussions and how it helped him return to peak All-Star form.

Myopia or nearsightedness will affect 50% of the population by 2050. This condition when managed properly in children can decrease the chance of life threatening eye conditions later in life. This report is a great summary of the options for treating myopia in kids. Please schedule an appointment today as time is of the essence. The sooner myopia is slowed, the better the outcome.
