Is children's eyesight still routinely screened in school and at what age?
I think my son may have astigmatism (am I right in this - ie if he looks straight ahead one eye is looking ahead but the other is slightly off centre).
Should I take him to the optician or is this a normal childhood thing which will resolve itself / be picked up at screening? He starts Reception in Sept.
