An eye examination by an ophthalmologist is scheduled in the Austrian mother-child health record between the 10th and 14th month of life and at the end of the second year of your child’s life (22nd-26th month). The first screening examination can be performed by the pediatrician in accordance with the mother-child health record. If there are abnormalities in the eyes, or if there are conditions associated with an increased risk of eye diseases, you may be referred to us, your pediatric ophthalmologist in Graz, at an earlier stage. If the findings are normal, a further examination is recommended shortly before starting school.
