Children’s Eye Exams – Always $0 Out of Pocket
Protecting Young Eyes with Preventative Care That’s Fully Covered
Good vision is essential to your child’s development, learning, and confidence—and the earlier we identify any concerns, the better. At Crystal Vision & Better Hearing, we’re proud to offer comprehensive eye exams for children at no cost to families.
Thanks to BC’s Medical Services Plan (MSP), children aged 18 and under receive routine eye exams completely free of charge. With a valid Care Card, there are no out-of-pocket fees—just exceptional care.
When Should Your Child Have an Eye Exam?
The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends:
6 MONTHS
First eye exam
AGE 3
First comprehensive exam
4 AND BEYOND
Annual exams every year
Regular eye exams ensure your child is developing the visual skills needed for success in school and daily life.
Why Early Eye Exams Matter
Children rely on their vision to learn, grow, and thrive. A comprehensive eye exam checks for:
- Sharp visual acuity—at all distances
- Eye teaming and coordination
- Smooth and precise eye movement
- Comfortable, accurate focusing
Even if your child isn’t showing signs of a vision problem, early testing can catch issues before they affect learning or behaviour.
