Eye Care for Everyone
Regular eye exams are essential for maintaining good eye health and detecting any potential issues early on.
The American Optometric Association (AOA) recommends that people who wear glasses or contacts get eye exams annually to keep up with any potential changes in their vision. They also recommend annual eye exams for people who don’t need vision correction in order to detect early signs of eye disease.
People living with health conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure may need more frequent eye exams because these conditions can have a negative effect on vision.
Older adults also need to get regular eye exams because from the age of 40, they’re more likely to experience age-related eye problems such as presbyopia, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
As we age, the risk of eye disease further increases, which is why the AOA recommends annual eye exams for people over 60.
Whatever your age, you can trust Domiano Eye Care to give you prompt accurate diagnoses and treatments using cutting-edge technology.
Eye Exams for Children
Vision problems in children are more common than you might think, with an estimated 5% to 10% of pre-schoolers and 25% of school-aged children experiencing vision problems.
This is why the AOA emphasizes regular eye exams for children, particularly at 6 months of age, age 3, and before they start school. For children without vision problems or risk factors, annual eye exams should be continued throughout their school years.
However, children with existing vision problems or risk factors should have their eyes examined more frequently, or as recommended by their optometrist.
Some common risk factors include:
- Premature birth
- Developmental delays
- Crossed or turned eyes
- Family history of eye disease
- History of eye injury
- Other physical illnesses or diseases
