    Welcome back to a new season of LittleEyePods! Today we bring you a skit about the importance of pediatric eye exams. We begin with two old college friends, Ana, an engineer, and mother of 2 – a 4-month-old infant and a 3-year-old, and Cheryl Ann Scott, an eye doctor, bumping into each other while waiting in line for coffee. Anna uses the opportunity to ask Dr. Scott about her children’s vision.
