Do you wait until you notice a problem before seeing an optometrist for an eye exam? Or do you plan regular checks? Many people dont realize the importance of regular eye exams. In fact, it is the most reliable way to maintain eye health and quality of vision for a long time. Dont make the mistake of waiting until you have complaints about your vision before ordering a full eye exam. Book an appointment today with Dr. Elliott Shapiro, your experienced optometrist in the community of San Diego La Jolla. The Importance of Eye Exams Clear and healthy vision plays a key role at every stage of life, which is why preventive eye care is so important. What you may not know is that many common eye diseases and vision problems do not initially cause any symptoms. Problems only arise when these diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration progress to a later stage. Unfortunately, even if visual damage has already occurred and the treatment prognosis is less positive. On the other hand, if an eye disease is detected early during an eye examination, an ophthalmologist can treat it immediately - before permanent vision loss occurs. Along with examining eye diseases, Dr. Shapiro will also test your vision during an eye exam at our La Jolla office. Vision doesnt usually stay the same throughout life. We verify that your current prescription is correct to ensure you receive the most appropriate vision correction including glasses, bifocalsmultifocals and contact lenses. What to Expect During Your Eye Exam We treat each patient who comes to our La Jolla Eye Center in San Diego as a unique person. This means that you will benefit from the specific tests and procedures you need, depending on your age, health, vision conditions and the judgment of our ophthalmologist. Generally, a full eye exam begins with taking your medical history and asking questions about your lifestyle requirements. We then assess visual acuity, binocularity, color vision, peripheral vision and eye health. Your eye doctor may also use tonometry (a breath test or blue light) to measure the pressure inside the eye, a screening test for glaucoma. Depending on the results of all these tests, we can perform further procedures using the latest technologies such as digital retinal imaging and OCT scanning.
