5 Benefits of Scheduling a Routine Eye Exam
Here are five benefits of routine eye exams. We hope these will inspire you to give us a call and schedule an appointment with one of our eye doctors!
- Help children succeed. Children's eyes and vision change rapidly as they age. Eye exams for children are essential for ensuring their eyes develop properly. Pediatric eye exams also help us detect common childhood vision problems like amblyopia or nearsightedness which, if left uncorrected, can limit children’s participation in athletics and academics.
- Catch early warning signs of eye problems. Many eye conditions, like glaucoma and macular degeneration, have no signs or symptoms in their early stages. Our advanced technologies allow us to detect and treat issues as soon as possible, which will improve your outcome.
- Keep you up-to-date on your prescriptions. Whether you have astigmatism, keratoconus, or some other need for corrective eyewear, a routine exam is your best chance for ensuring your prescriptions are updated and optimized for your current vision needs.
- Give you the chance to explore new eyewear and other innovative eye care techniques. Our optometry clinic is constantly researching and implementing the latest advances in optometry, including hard-to-fit contact lenses and innovative diagnostic tools.
- Detect other medical issues. Optometrists are often the first healthcare professionals to alert patients to the presence of a possible health issue such as high blood pressure or diabetes, since these conditions often lead to vision changes.
