How Often Do You Need to See the Optometrist, Based on Age?
The AOA advises annual eye exams for eyeglass or contact lens wearers, even if you don’t normally need vision correction. Individuals over 60 should have yearly exams due to increased risk of eye disease.
For those over 40, yearly exams are recommended to monitor age-related issues like presbyopia, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
Eye Exams for Children
Approximately 5% to 10% of preschoolers and 25% of school-aged children have vision problems. The AOA recommends eye exams at 6 months, age 3, and before starting school. Regular exams throughout schooling are crucial, especially for children with vision issues or risk factors.
Ensure your child’s optimal learning and development by scheduling regular eye exams.
