It is important to go to the eye doctor when you notice changes in your vision. Your yearly eye exam is also important even if you think your sight is fine. Your eyes can change slowly, over time. Sometimes, they can change so slowly that you don’t notice. This is why regular eye exams are important.

Eye doctors don’t just prescribe glasses or contacts to help you see better. They also check for eye diseases like glaucoma or cataracts. Catching these early can save your sight as you age. Eye exams can also show signs of other health problems like diabetes or high blood pressure. These problems can be dangerous if you don’t know about them. Finding them early can help stop them from becoming bigger problems later.

Getting your eyes checked is an easy way to take care of yourself. Using your vision benefits can help keep your eyes healthy. It can help keep the rest of you healthy too.
