Regularly Scheduled Comprehensive Eye Exams
Patients should schedule a comprehensive eye exam every year. Children should also have annual eye exams to ensure proper development of their vision and prevent any interference with academic achievement. Older adults are often at a higher risk for eye conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. The eyes are a window into general health. With information obtained during an examination of the eyes, our doctors have been able to detect chronic conditions such as cholesterol, diabetes, and high blood pressure as well as uncommon medical conditions such as endocrine, neurological, and autoimmune diseases. The early detection of these conditions is crucial for proper treatment.
If we suspect an ocular condition or disease, we will immediately schedule or perform diagnostic tests to determine our next steps.
