Incredibly helpful and well written

I highly recommend this book to all parents. Not every doctor is up on the latest methods and treatments on treating eye problems so you as the parent should be. Get this book and find the best pediatric ophthalmologist (not an optometrist) in your area and your child will be in the best hands, an educated parent and a trained MD.

A must have book for all parents!

This book is destined to be a "must have" for all parents. Easy to read & understand, Dr. Clark takes the mystery out of some of the common, and not so common, eye problems that your kids may have. I liked it so much that after I read it, I bought 2 more, as gifts for my sister & my sister-in-law!

Every parent needs this book!

This is going to be the "What to Expect" book for eyecare for children. I just got it and it is so easy to read and understand. It truly is a handbook. Keep it handy. It'll probably tell you more (and more clearly) than your pediatrician! Maybe I'll get one for my pediatrician....
