Your child’s first eye exam can help protect healthy vision from the very beginning. The InfantSEE® program provides a comprehensive eye assessment for infants during their first year of life.

Early Vision Care for a Healthy Start

A child’s visual development begins long before they learn to read or start school. In the first year of life, vision plays an important role in how infants explore their surroundings, develop motor skills, and interact with the world. InfantSEE® eye exams provide an early opportunity to evaluate your baby’s vision and eye health during this critical stage of development. At Richlin Eye, we offer InfantSEE® eye exams in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, helping parents feel confident that their child’s eyes are developing as they should.

What Is the InfantSEE® Program?

InfantSEE® is a public health program developed by the American Optometric Association that provides a comprehensive eye assessment for infants between the ages of 6 and 12 months. The goal of the program is to identify potential vision or eye health concerns early, even before a child can communicate or recognize visual problems. During the exam, our doctors evaluate how your baby’s eyes focus, move, and respond to visual stimuli. We also assess eye alignment and examine the health of important eye structures to ensure that vision development is progressing normally.

Who Is a Candidate for InfantSEE®?

InfantSEE® exams are recommended for infants between 6 and 12 months of age, even if there are no noticeable vision concerns. Because babies cannot communicate visual difficulties, early screening helps identify issues that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Infants with a family history of eye conditions, premature birth, or developmental concerns may especially benefit from early vision evaluation. However, the InfantSEE® program is designed for all babies to help ensure their eyes and visual system are developing properly.

What to Expect During Your Visit

These exams are gentle, non-invasive, and designed to be comfortable for both infants and parents.

Results & Ongoing Care

Many infants complete their InfantSEE® exam with normal findings, giving parents confidence that their child’s eyes are developing as expected. If any concerns are identified, early monitoring or treatment can help support healthy visual development.

Following an InfantSEE® eye exam in Beverly Hills, most children should continue routine pediatric eye exams as they grow; typically before starting school and periodically throughout childhood. Regular monitoring helps ensure that vision problems are identified early and managed effectively.
