No matter your age, routine eye examinations (typically every two years for healthy adults) are important to maintain optimal eye health. Comprehensive eye exams – not just basic vision screenings – should be conducted not only to determine proper prescriptions for refractive errors, but also to catch early warning signs of eye disease and other health risks.
If it has been two or more years since your last eye examination or if your children have not had the recommended exam for their age group, contact your optometrist to schedule a comprehensive eye examination.
