As we grow older, age increases our chances of developing a range of eye conditions. However, we’re here to help with any concerns, and the first step is an eye exam.
Eye exams are one of the most common ways to not only detect problems with your eyesight but also detect signs of disease. Optical Thirty8 can help you monitor and manage your eye health so you’re never blindsided by vision-damaging eye conditions.
The first step is to book your appointment.
Many of us sometimes forget that our eyes are a living organ in itself with its own needs. You may even think to yourself, “If I can see fine, then my eyes must be healthy.”
However, by neglecting to have regular eye exams, you are putting yourself at risk for several issues that could develop without your knowledge.
The Canadian Association of Optometrists (CAO) recommends patients should undergo eye exams every 2 years.
Some of the most common eye conditions patients face as they grow older can include:
Each of our eye exams is designed to help you feel calm and relaxed throughout the process. We begin every exam with a quick conversation regarding your health and family health history. If you have any questions or concerns about your eyes going into the exam, this is an excellent opportunity to let us know. The more you can tell us about your eye health, the better we can tailor the exam to fit your needs.
Following this chat, we’ll head straight over to assessing your visual strength. These assessments include tried and true methods, like an eye chart or a phoropter. These tools help us determine the strength of glasses or contact lenses you may need.
Finally, we’ll examine the health of your eyes. Through this examination, we can help detect signs of eye conditions and diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, age-related macular degeneration, and more.
Eye exams can also detect issues with your overall health, including diabetes and high blood pressure.
Depending on what we find during the eye exam, we may recommend treatment options or management plans to help protect your vision and eye health.
Eye exams are simple and straightforward; all you have to do is book your appointment and show up at the date and time you choose. We can help with the rest.
