Just because your current eyeglasses work well doesn’t mean you should skip your annual eye exam. Early detection and management of many ocular diseases are crucial in preventing serious vision loss. The American Optometric Association recommends a yearly eye exam for individuals aged 18 to 64. Some people may need more frequent eye exams, especially those with a personal or family history of eye diseases or other high-risk factors.
An eye exam provides our doctor with a window into your overall health, not just your vision. Many serious health conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol, can be detected during an eye exam. Some vision problems may have subtle or no symptoms at all, making regular exams essential to ensure your visual system is functioning properly and to prevent potential issues.
