The Importance of Regular Eye Exams

More Than Seeing Well An eye exam is not just about checking whether you need glasses. It is a complete assessment of your eye health that can detect serious problems before they become symptomatic.

How Often Should You Get an Exam? The recommended frequency varies with age and risk factors. Healthy adults between 18 and 40 should have an exam every 2-3 years. After 40, an annual exam is recommended.

What Does a Complete Exam Include? A complete exam includes several tests: visual acuity assessment, refraction test, tonometry, pupil dilation and eye coordination assessment.
