Comprehensive eye exams can help in early detection of eye diseases, which can increase the chances of restoring good vision. If left undiagnosed and untreated, these conditions can lead to permanent vision loss and even blindness.

The number of times you must get your eye checked depends on factors like: your age, risk factors, personal needs, and overall health.

Adults are advised to get an eye exam every 1-2 years, though children may need to get them more frequently.

You could be having Cataract if you experience any of these symptoms:

• Cloudy or blurry vision
• Difficulty seeing at night
• Seeing glares around lights
• Eyesight frequently getting worse
• Sensitivity to light
• Objects appearing multiple, or double vision

You could be having a Retinal Tear/ Retinal detachment if:

• You notice a sudden appearance of a large number of floaters
• An appearance of a curtain in front of your vision
• You experience a sudden vision loss 

If you experience any of these symptoms, visit your ophthalmologist immediately to check if your retina has been torn.

If you have Myopia (near-sightedness), Aphakics (people who have undergone Cataract surgery), or a family history of retinal detachment, it is recommended that you go through a regular and thorough retinal examination by indirect ophthalmoscopy.
