Wolfson Children’s Hospital provides pediatric ophthalmology services in collaboration with Nemours Children’s Health, Jacksonville.

Pediatric ophthalmologists specialize in treating complex eye issues in premature babies, infants, and children to reduce the effects of long-term eye problems later in life.

Many procedures can be done without the need for an overnight stay. Nemours works with parents and specialists to coordinate care, so you can see several doctors on the same day, in the same place.

Conditions We Treat

We see a wide range of eye conditions. This is an example of some of the most common:

  • Lazy eye
  • Blocked tear duct
  • Eye injuries
  • Retinopathy of Prematurity
  • Astigmatism
  • Eye tumors
  • Retinoblastoma
  • Strabismus (Crossed Eyes)
