It's recommended to get an eye exam at least once a year, even if you think you see well. The eyes don't have pain-detecting nerves, so you might not know if there's an issue unless your vision is affected.
What's the difference between an ophthalmologist, optometrist, and orthoptist?
Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who specialize in the eye and surrounding areas. They can diagnose and treat eye diseases and injuries, and prescribe medicines. Optometrists examine eyes, advise on visual problems, and prescribe glasses or contact lenses. Orthoptists diagnose and treat vision defects and eye movement abnormalities
What can UV rays do to your eyes?
UV rays from the sun can burn your eyes and skin. Symptoms of prolonged UV exposure include eye irritation, trouble seeing, and red or swollen eyes. To protect your eyes, wear UV-protective eyewear when you're outside during the day.
How long should I use an eye drop bottle?
Once you open an eye drop bottle, you should use it for a month. After that, you should throw it away and buy a new bottle.
What is amblyopia (lazy eye)?
Amblyopia is the most common cause of vision loss in children. If it's not treated properly and on time, it can continue into adulthood.
