The eyes tell us much more about health than just whether your eyesight is good or not. Regular visits to an eye care professional will help you maintain good vision, prevent eye diseases and even detect other health problems.
Remember that some disorders can go undetected for a long time. If you complain of blurred / temporarily blurred vision, headaches, eye strain, etc., see an eye care professional.
A missed eye test is a missed opportunity to detect potential health problems such as diabetes or high blood pressure or high cholesterol, the early signs of which are often visible in the eyes.
Regular eye check-ups can prevent these problems before they cause irreparable damage to your eyes and health.
