Regular eye exams are essential for many reasons. One of the most important reasons is that vision changes can occur gradually, and patients may not always notice this gradual decline. An updated prescription can significantly reduce eye strain and discomfort and help patients easily use their eyes.
Moreover, regular eye exams can help detect eye diseases or conditions that may not exhibit symptoms until they have already progressed. Early detection is critical to treat and manage eye conditions effectively.
Common eye conditions that we screen for during a Comprehensive Eye Exam include glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy. Early detection and treatment can help prevent vision loss or even blindness.
Additionally, eye exams are crucial for children and adolescents. Detecting vision problems early can help prevent learning difficulties and developmental delays in children. Our clinic provides customized eye exams for children to ensure that their vision is developing appropriately.
