Hello,

At his age, the best thing you can do for him is make sure he wears glasses. This will help improve the neural pathways from his eyes to his brain. In turn, this will help improve his natural vision.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Eric Goldstein, Pediatrician
