Waldwick eye care
Getting a yearly eye exam is recommended for everyone. Here at Wyckoff Ophthalmology, you can benefit from our
Waldwick eye care provided by our ophthalmologist, a medical doctor who is an expert in the detection, diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of conditions and diseases of the eye.
There are two components to our comprehensive medical eye exams. First is to screen your vision. You may need new or updated prescription lenses in order to obtain the sharpest and clearest vision possible. What was true for you a year ago could be different now, and that's why an annual visit is such a good idea. Too often, people settle for vision that's merely adequate or even subpar. Among the tests that are done by our Waldwick eye care to gauge your vision is trying out various strength lenses on you to find out which gives you the best vision correction. If you do have glasses or contacts, bring them with you so that you can be tested with and without. It's remarkable just how much of a difference the right prescription for corrective lenses can make. Common eye diseases like glaucoma and cataracts can affect anyone, no matter age, heredity, or medical history. Others, such as diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration may only be applicable to you under certain circumstances. What is certain, though, is that all those diseases start out with no obvious symptoms, not revealing themselves until the latter stages, which is usually after you have suffered some degree of vision loss or damage to your eyes. Our
Waldwick eye care every year will help to prevent that from occurring. In addition, our ophthalmologist will be able to find valuable clues to your medical health from our eye exam. Diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol may all be detected that way, giving you the vital head start to achieve wellness before you suffer any consequences of those illnesses.
While you're thinking about it, this would be the ideal time to call us and schedule our comprehensive medical eye exam.
