As teens grow, their vision continues to develop, making annual eye exams just as important as they were in childhood. Skipping these exams can result in undiagnosed issues that may affect academics, sports, and overall health.
- Why Teens Need Regular Exams:
- Detect changes in prescription: Myopia (nearsightedness) often worsens during adolescence.
- Monitor eye health: Conditions like dry eye, eye strain, or early signs of glaucoma can emerge.
- Enhance performance: Clear vision is essential for academic success and athletic performance.
- What to Expect During an Exam: A comprehensive check for visual acuity, binocular vision, and overall eye health.
Vision is a lifelong priority. Encourage your teen to prioritize annual eye exams to maintain healthy eyes and a clear path to success. Schedule an appointment today!
