Why Regular Eye Exams are Important
For adults and seniors, regular eye exams are essential for detecting age-related eye conditions that often develop gradually and without noticeable symptoms. Conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy can significantly impact your vision if not detected and treated early.
Regular eye exams allow our team to monitor changes in your vision, assess your eye health, and provide timely treatment to prevent or manage these conditions effectively.
What to Expect During Your Eye Exam
We follow the guidelines set out by the American Optometric Association, which recommends:
- Adults ages 18 to 64 have an eye exam every 2 years
- Adults 65 and older should have an eye exam every year
During your eye exam, we’ll use technology and comprehensive techniques to detect signs and indications of eye diseases and conditions.
Ultimately, we want to confirm your vision is healthy and you feel good.
To start your appointment, we’ll have a little meet and greet, which includes filling out any necessary paperwork and having a face-to-face conversation with the optometrist about you.
We’ll ask about your personal and family medical history, any medications you’re taking, and any concerns about your vision that you may have. We’ll also ask about your lifestyle and digital habits so we can assess whether you deal with digital eye strain.
To evaluate your overall eye health, we use diagnostic technology and in-depth techniques to determine the following items:
- Your visual acuity, or the sharpness and clarity of your eyesight
- Any refractive errors, or the type of vision issue that makes it hard to see clearly
- Your depth perception, color vision, and peripheral vision
- Eye focus and eye movement
- The pressure inside your eyes
- Signs of eye diseases like glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and cataracts
Once we’ve had a thorough look at your eye health–inside and out–we’ll go over our findings with you. Your next steps could include further testing, a contact lens fitting, or dry eye treatment.
On your way out, you can meet with our opticians to choose your new favorite frames to spruce up your style.
Customized Care for Your Vision Needs
We recognize that each patient’s vision and eye health needs are unique, especially as they age. Our experienced optometrists take the time to discuss your lifestyle, medical history, and any vision concerns you may have.
Based on this information, we’ll tailor our recommendations for vision correction, eye care products, and treatment plans to suit your specific needs. Whether you require new prescription glasses, contact lenses, or specialized treatment for an eye condition, we’re here to provide you with personalized, compassionate care.
