Each August, Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month is recognized just in time for students returning to school. The goal of this annual national health observance is to educate parents on best practices for keeping their children’s eyes healthy, and how that can impact success in the classroom.

Dr. Jen Wademan, OD, has teamed up with ZEISS to emphasize the importance of eye care for children, sharing vital information from a new study reporting that parents are genuinely concerned about the way screen time impacts their health. Dr. Wademan shows how some of the latest breakthrough technologies can help, spotlighting the new ZEISS Single Vision SmartLife Lenses which are designed to meet the needs of children ages 6 to 19. This technology adapts to the size of a growing child’s face and the way children hold phones and tablets closer to their eyes, due to their shorter arms and smaller proportions.
