We all know that vision is important for everyday activities like driving and reading a book, but eye exams are also important because they reveal information about the patient’s overall health.
Sometimes, health issues have been spotted – and corrected – during a routine eye exam. Subtle changes can be tracked from year to year so treatment is not delayed.
The American Optometric Association (AOA) recommends eye exams once per year.
Life can get pretty chaotic sometimes. Between work, family, and recreation, your vision is more important than ever. Annual eye exams are essential to check for normal age-related changes such as age 40+ focusing problems, cataract development and dry eyes. Less common conditions can be found early and treated.
Children compose a special category in the field of eye care. Normally, difficulties with vision do not develop at an early age. For this reason, many parents wait until an obvious problem presents itself before considering an eye examination. Often, children have difficulty both in realizing they have a vision problem and in communicating the problem to others.
The best course to follow includes a routine eye examination before children start school, when the demands for good vision increase tremendously, and with annual checkups thereafter. Dr. Smith is specially trained and equipped in the area of children’s vision. You can be assured your child will get the attention and treatment he or she requires.
Our practice is committed to providing quality health care to people of all ages. Often seniors feel that they are being hurried or rushed through examinations or appointments. In this office, the average examination time is about an hour, and that is time spent with the doctor, not with a technician or other staff member. There is no better place for you to receive a quality eye health examination than Dr. Smith’s office. We would be very happy to assist you with your vision exam and provide you with the time and attention you deserve.
If your family care doctor or endocrinologist needs particular exams to monitor your health, we can provide those exams and send reports back to your doctor’s office. This is often the case with patients who are diabetic or those on certain medications.
