Question
How much vision is normal for a 5-year-old child? My child has been experiencing this situation for a long time, and I am very worried. I fear it may become severe. Please give me some advice.
Answer
The normal vision on the 1.0 new vision chart is 5.0. If a child between the ages of 4-5 does not meet the standard vision, parents should pay close attention. Some children’s vision may be slightly lower than their age group, but their refractive power is within the normal range. As they grow older, their vision will reach a normal level, with only a slight delay in visual function development. Some children have refractive issues and may find it difficult to achieve normal vision levels. Therefore, when they find that their child’s vision is below the normal range, they should go to the hospital for an eye examination promptly. In addition, it is necessary to cultivate good eye habits in children on a daily basis.
