Comprehensive Eye Exam vs. Sight Test When visiting optical stores they may offer sight tests, which use automated machinery to obtain your current prescription. However, often times these tests are not performed by a licenced professional and should not be a substitute for a comprehensive eye examination. A comprehensive eye examination is performed by a licenced optometrist, and examines not only your vision but the whole health of the eye. Many serious eye and health condi...tions such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, high blood pressure, and diabetes, can be detected by your optometrist. They use their extensive training, experience and professional education to guide the testing and interpret the results. Therefore, as the sight test does not examine the eye itself these serious eye conditions will go undetected. Make sure to have your eyes examined by an optometrist every 1-2 years. Although, you think you may see clearly there may be underlying conditions. See more

With sunny days coming our way it is time to start thinking about proper UV protection. Choosing a new pair of sunglasses is definitely exciting, but keeping up... with the latest trends and fashion is not the only thing to consider. One of the most important points to remember when purchasing your new sunglasses is UV protection. Make sure that the lenses block out 99-100% of UV-A and UV-B radiation and screen out 75-90% of visible light. This will help protect your eyes from problems such as: age-related cataracts, degeneration of the cornea, and abnormal growths on the eye’s surface. With this in mind it is equally important to protect our children’s eyes as well, as they generally spend more time outdoors than adults. Some experts say that up to half of a person's lifetime exposure to UV radiation can occur by age 18. Be safe and protect your eyes year round! See more

Did you know that an eye exam can be as effective as a physical in determining your health? Unfortunately, many of us put off going to the optometrist if they feel like their vision has not changed. Comprehensive eye exams are important for many reasons. Eye doctors often are the first health care professionals to detect chronic systemic diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
