How Often Do You Need an Eye Exam?

Whether you're having trouble with seeing or if you're just concerned with your eye health, an eye exam is an important way to make sure that you're performing at your peak. It can be hard to determine how often you need to see an eye doctor. If you have any of the following conditions, call Eye On Health in Phoenix, AZ, right away to schedule an appointment.

Blurry Vision

Whether you can't see when you're reading or driving, the only way to correct your vision starts with an eye exam. If you are having trouble with daily activities, or if you've just noticed a change in your vision, make an appointment right away.

You Wear Eyeglasses

If you already use any type of corrective devices such as eyeglasses or contacts, it's a generally good idea to schedule annual appointments. Over time your eyes can change, and an annual exam will ensure that your prescription is up to date. Annual eye exams will also ensure that any other issues with your eyes are caught very early on.

Blind Spots or Floaters

If you have dark spots in your vision, get an eye appointment scheduled immediately. Even dark spots that move or go away after a few minutes can be a sign of a serious problem with your optic nerve. Even if the rest of your vision is fine, get to an eye doctor.

Eye Pain

If you are experiencing any type of eye pain, make an appointment right away.
