VISION & HEALTH NEWS Importance of Eye Examinations It is recommended that everyone gets an annual eye exam, regardless of their age or whether there is any sign of eye illness or trouble. Children should be tested at birth, then again at 6 months, at 3 years, and then every year after that to ensure proper ocular and visual development. If a child needs glasses and is not wearing them prior to being 6 years old, their brain may never develop the proper neurological connections and potentially preventing them from ever seeing with 20/20 vision as an adult. For adults, however, the frequency of eye care visits depends on the doctor’s recommendation and may occur every year or possibly more often, depending on your overall eye health, how you use your eyes on daily basis, and whether you wear glasses or contacts. Correcting Blurry Vision Glasses and contact lenses correct blurry vision. You may want to wear them more often in order to see things more comfortably and without straining your eyes from squinting. To set the misconception straight, getting used to seeing things more clearly will not make your eyes worse or dependent on needing glasses or having to wear lenses. However, your lens prescription may change over time naturally because of age or external eye diseases. It is important to get annual exams to determine if your prescription is current and whether there are any signs of possible disease.
