Regular eye exams play an important role in maintaining healthy eyes. At Bocaview Optical, we recommend getting your eyes checked every year to detect early signs of eye disease. During an eye exam, our optometrist will check your vision, examine your eyes and also look for signs of other health conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Many eye diseases do not have noticeable symptoms in their early stages, so regular exams can help to detect and treat any issues before they become more serious. Don’t neglect your eye health, schedule an appointment with Bocaview Optical for a comprehensive eye exam today.
Understanding common eye conditions is essential to maintaining healthy eyesight. Some of the most prevalent conditions that affect eyesight include myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Myopia, or nearsightedness, causes distant images to appear blurry. Hyperopia, or farsightedness, causes near images to appear blurry. Astigmatism causes distorted or blurred vision at any distance. Cataracts cause cloudy or blurred vision and can lead to blindness if left untreated. Glaucoma causes damage to the optic nerve and can result in irreversible vision loss. Macular degeneration causes central vision loss and is most common in older adults. Understanding and recognizing these conditions can help individuals seek appropriate treatment to preserve their vision.
