5 Reasons to Get an Annual Eye Exam
Did you know that the eye is the only place in the body where blood vessels and a nerve can be examined? Here are 5 reasons for an eye exam.

Detect Health Concerns Early – Just like an annual physical, getting a comprehensive eye exam should be part of your health routine. The eye is the only place in the body to where blood vessels and a nerve can be examined without performing surgery. This can help detect vascular diseases and complications, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. Annual evaluation of the optic nerve can help detect glaucoma early, multiple sclerosis, and many other neurological diseases. Our personalized eye exam includes: visual field screening, retinal photo screening, visual testing, glasses prescription, and eye health evaluation with dilation.
Vision Changes – Even though your vision seems the same, changes in the prescription may be gradual that it is not noticeable to you. Getting a new glasses prescription every year can ensure you are getting the right amount of correction to decrease eye fatigue and to see the best you can. Some patients have multiple prescriptions for different activities and settings to make their eyes see the best and be the most comfortable.
New technology – There are always new lens options and contact lens options every year. We are always updating our products to give you the best visual outcome and comfort. The personalized experience at our clinic will help you find the right options for your eyewear. We are excited to talk to you about Crizal Prevencia, a macular degeneration specific anti-glare coating, and Crizal Sapphire, the newest anti-glare that gives 50% less reflections than the previous Crizal anti-glare.
