Understanding Eye Health
Eye health involves more than just having clear vision. It includes the overall condition and function of your eyes. Regular eye exams are vital for detecting potential issues early, often before you even notice symptoms. These exams can identify conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration, which may not show obvious signs until they've progressed.
