Your eyes are an important part of your health. People rely on their eyes to see and make sense of the world around them. As we get older, our eyes become more susceptible to damage and disease. Staying alert to changes in vision is important to pick up eye problems early. Some conditions, such as glaucoma, have no signs or symptoms until they are in advanced stages.
Therefore, regular eye examinations are vital to prompt diagnosis and treatment of any condition. Early detection and management can slow down or even reverse the progression of eye diseases.
