Why regular eye exams matter
As we age, the risk of eye diseases and vision changes increases. Conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy become more common, but early detection can make all the difference.
We also focus on everyday concerns such as digital eye strain and dry eye, which can affect comfort and clarity at any age.
How often should you have an eye exam?
We tailor your exam schedule based on your unique needs and health history:
Seniors 65 and older: Yearly exams are important to closely monitor age-related eye conditions and maintain eye health.
Adults 20 to 45: Every 2 years unless you have specific health issues or vision concerns.
Adults 45 and over: Annual exams are recommended due to increased risks of age-related changes like presbyopia and eye disease.
What to expect during your exam
Your exam will be thorough but comfortable. We use modern diagnostic tools to provide detailed insights and catch problems early:
- Visual acuity testing: Measures clarity of vision at various distances.
- Refraction: Determines your precise prescription for glasses or contact lenses.
- Eye pressure measurement: A screening tool for glaucoma risk.
- Retina and optic nerve imaging: Using digital imaging and optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect early signs of disease.
- Visual field testing: Maps peripheral vision to identify potential neurological or glaucoma-related changes.
- Dry eye evaluation: Helps us diagnose and treat irritation or discomfort.
We explain each step clearly and recommend solutions that fit your lifestyle.
