Among the most sound strategies for maintaining the well-being of your eyes and optimal vision is to get a comprehensive eye exam once per year. At Quality Optical of Columbia, we want to ensure that your eyesight is as good as it can be and to keep your eyes strong and healthy. Your eyes change over time and a lot can transpire over twelve months. If you already wear eyeglasses or contacts, you might need an updated prescription to meet your current needs. And if you're never worn corrective lenses before, this might be the time when you could benefit from them. Just seeing “okay” should never be good enough. Sharper and clearer vision may be possible. And with our
eye testing in Ellicott City, we'll find out if it is.
As for your eye health, diseases such as cataracts and glaucoma can happen to anyone at any age. And if you have certain conditions such as diabetes (type one or type two), you may be prone to eye concerns like diabetic retinopathy. And macular degeneration is a concern for anyone at least 40 years of age or older. If you're thinking that you could just wait until you noticed something before getting examined, then think again. Most eye diseases are sneaky. They form and progress without revealing their presence with any symptoms. Typically, by the time you do experience signs, it is often because you have already lost some vision or had some eye damage. In many instances, you will not be able to recover that vision and so it makes our
eye testing in Ellicott City all the more vital.
Our eye doctor will use various tests as a way of gauging your eyesight and also to find any signs of eye diseases. If you need a new or updated prescription, it will be written for you and we can fill it for you right here. And if an eye disease is diagnosed, the proper course of treatment and management will be determined and discussed. The best outcomes are linked to early detection, as is the case with diseases anywhere in your body. And speaking of the rest of your body, indications of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and even diabetes may be noticed as part of our
eye testing in Ellicott City. Considering all of the advantages, why wait? Call us today and schedule yours.
