Why an Eye Check-Up?

No Symptoms Despite Illness.

An eye check-up is crucial for early
detection
of conditions like
glaucoma and macular
degeneration.

Glaucoma, for example, can go unnoticed for years, but early
diagnosis allows
for immediate treatment, potentially keeping
symptoms at bay. Diabetes and high blood

pressure can also show early signs in the eyes.

Who Should Have an Eye Check-Up?

Recommended for everyone – essential for some.


Many eye diseases, including glaucoma, which can potentially lead to blindness, can be
detected early with advanced technology—before symptoms appear. An eye examination from the
age of 40 is highly recommended to identify early signs of serious conditions and initiate
timely treatment before vision deteriorates.


If you spend over six hours daily on screens (computer, tablet, phone), regular eye
check-ups are essential to protect the eye surface. We’ll show you the best ways to care for
your eyes.
By the way, children should minimize screen time on tablets and phones. Studies suggest
excessive screen use may increase the risk of nearsightedness.


When myopia exceeds -6 diopters, it is referred to as “pathological myopia.” This is due to
an increased risk of retinal holes and retinal detachment in individuals with this
condition. If you have severe myopia, it is recommended to visit an eye doctor at least once
a year for regular check-ups.


Diabetes can cause serious damage to the blood vessels in the eyes, potentially leading to
significant vision impairment. Depending on the severity of your diabetes, you should have
an eye exam at least once a year. In some cases, more frequent check-ups and treatment may
be necessary.


-Children should have an early eye exam to detect the risk of amblyopia in time. Amblyopia
occurs when the brain fails to develop normal vision in one or both eyes, and it cannot be
corrected later with glasses or surgery. Early detection is crucial to ensure that both eyes
develop equally and function


Many eye conditions, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and keratoconus, have a genetic
component. Early detection and treatment significantly improve outcomes, making regular
check-ups essential for those with a family history of eye disease.


Conditions like high blood pressure can severely damage the retina and, in extreme cases,
cause vascular occlusions leading to vision loss. Regular eye exams are crucial for
individuals with hypertension to detect early changes and prevent complications.


Frequent changes in prescription glasses can indicate an underlying issue with the eye’s
surface. Conditions such as dry eyes, keratoconus, or corneal abnormalities may be the
cause. Early detection is key to preventing long-term damage and ensuring optimal vision.

Frequently Asked Questions and
Answers from Our Ophthalmologists

For adults without noticeable eye problems, we recommend a preventive check-up every two years.
People over 40 or those at higher risk (such as those with a family history or pre-existing
conditions like diabetes) should have an annual exam. We offer personalized preventive care plans
at our practice.

2. What happens during a preventive eye exam?

A preventive eye exam includes several tests, such as measuring intraocular pressure, checking
vision, and examining the optic nerve. Imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography (OCT)
may also be used to detect early changes in the eye.

People over 40, those with a family history (e.g., glaucoma or macular degeneration), diabetics,
individuals with high blood pressure, and patients who spend a lot of time in front of screens
should be particularly mindful of their eye health. Any existing vision problems or sudden changes
should prompt an immediate examination.

While a preventive exam cannot prevent diseases, it can help detect eye conditions early and
treat them before serious damage occurs. Early diagnosis and targeted treatment are the best forms
of prevention.

Regular eye exams help detect and treat potential problems early, significantly reducing the
risk of vision loss and other complications. Additionally, good preventive care allows for
adjustments in visual aids and contributes to overall quality of life.

Yes, by maintaining a healthy diet, staying hydrated, protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays,
and taking screen breaks, you can do a lot for your eye health. However, regular eye check-ups
remain key to early detection of issues.
