Myopia (nearsightedness, where distance vision is blurry) is growing at an alarming rate, with 1 in 3 U.S. children now myopic. Researchers believe that the environment kids grow up in today, with too many close distance activities (like reading and device use) and lack of outdoor play, is contributing to the rapid increase in childhood myopia.
We strongly recommend annual eye and vision exams for all patients, even if you haven’t noticed any changes in your eye or vision health. With routine comprehensive eye exams, our optometrist can be on the lookout for signs of problems that you may otherwise not notice until a serious eye disease or condition has progressed.
Why do we recommend a contact lens exam for any patient thinking about switching to contacts? To begin, a contact lens exam allows us to conduct a thorough assessment not only of your vision, but of the physical attributes of your eyes as well.
To begin, a contact lens exam allows us to conduct a thorough assessment not only of your vision, but of the physical attributes of your eyes as well. After all, not everybody’s eyes are perfectly shaped to wear “traditional” contact lenses comfortably.
Infants and young children learn by observing the world around them. In fact, nearly 80 percent of what a child understands and learns is visually experienced. If you notice your baby’s eyes turning outward or inward (lasting more than a few seconds) or any other sign of an eye problem, please contact us to schedule an appointment for your child as soon as possible.
Contact lenses are not always the easiest solution for every person suffering from vision problems. Though some eye conditions may make wearing contacts a difficult proposition, we offer specialized hard-to-fit contacts specific to many vision problems.
