The Importance of Regular Eye Exams in Maple Ridge

Regular comprehensive eye exams are crucial even if you feel your vision is fine. Many eye conditions, such as glaucoma or macular degeneration, develop slowly and without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. By the time symptoms appear, significant vision loss may have already occurred. Regular exams allow us to detect these conditions early when they are most treatable

Preparing for Your Eye Exam

To get the most out of your comprehensive eye exam, it's important to come prepared. Here are a few tips to help you get ready:

  • Bring Your Current Glasses or Contact Lenses: If you wear corrective lenses, bring them along so we can assess their effectiveness and determine if any updates are needed.

FAQ

medical-plus medical-plus What is a Basic Vision Screening?

A basic vision screening, often performed at schools or during routine physicals, typically involves a simple test to determine your visual acuity—how well you see at a distance. While this can identify if you need corrective lenses, it does not assess the overall health of your eyes.

medical-plus medical-plus How is a Comprehensive Exam Better than a Vision Screening?

A comprehensive eye exam is a thorough evaluation of both your vision and eye health where as a vision screening is not.

A comprehensive eye exam includes a detailed examination of the structures inside your eyes, tests for eye diseases, and an assessment of how well your eyes work together.

At Pacific Eye Doctors, we believe that only a comprehensive eye exam can provide the insights needed to fully protect your vision and maintain your eye health over time.
