Pediatric Ophthalmologist in Doral, FL

Comprehensive Children's Ophthalmology Care

Children can experience a variety of eye problems that are quite distinct from adult eye diseases. Therefore, they often require the medical expertise of an experienced pediatric ophthalmologist.

Treatment for Childhood Eye Disorders

Kidz Medical Services (KMS) provides diagnoses and vision care treatment for childhood eye disorders, such as:

• Conjunctivitis and other eye infections.
• Strabismus, which is a misalignment of the eyes. A common example is the inward-turning gaze known as “crossed eyes.”
• Amblyopia (lazy eye), in which the vision of one eye is better than the other.
• Blocked tear ducts.
• Ptosis, which is the drooping of the upper eyelid.
• Retinopathy of prematurity, which causes abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina.
• Nystagmus, which causes repetitive, uncontrolled eye movements.
• Pediatric cataracts.
• Pediatric glaucoma.
• Orbital tumors.
• Abnormal vision development, and much more.
