Eye Exams Do So Much More!

Did you know that an eye exam can check for more than whether you need glasses or contacts? Most people think that they only need an eye exam if they have poor vision. Wrong. An eye exam does more than that. An eye exam can detect signs of serious diseases such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid problems and even certain types of cancers. Your overall health is connected to the state of your eyes and eye doctors can be the first to detect these signs. 

An eye exam can determine if you have digital eye strains, glaucoma, dry eyes, diabetic retinopathy and so much more. An annual eye exam is beneficial to identify early signs of these eye conditions before they become more serious. Eye conditions can impair your vision or lead to permanent vision loss. Therefore, it is important to see an eye care doctor once a year even if your vision is normal.
