Why you should have an Eye Exam?
As a person with vision issues (I’m now both long and short sighted) I know the value of regular eye tests. Being in my late forties mean that my eyesight is changing fast. So regular check ups from my optician mean that I reduce otherwise significant vision problems.
So we thought we would share with you five great reasons to have an eye test!
a) Regular and unexplained headaches. This is often a sign of worsening vision. If this applies to you them we would suggest a trip to your optician.
b) Improve your performance at work at at school/college. Regular eye examinations help children from some learning difficulties especially with reading.
c) Certain condition such as multiple sclerosis (eg optic neuritis) are often first discovered by an optometrist . Others include high cholesterol, diabetes and glaucoma. As we know early detection means early intervention.
d) Find out if you need spectacles or maybe contact lenses.
e) Finally the eyes act as a window to overall health and wellbeing.
So This August when not get you eyes test!
