In a child, it's difficult to say if the child cannot see or the child cannot communicate, best to confirm once in clinic after using dilatation drops. However subtle symptoms include frequent blinking or rubbing of eyes, squeezing eyes and watering from eyes.

Spectacles can come within 1 year.
Annual eye check up at an eye hospital is important, not just to check for spectacles but for counselling on how to prevent spectacle number from coming
