Periodic eye and eye sight tests are an important part of routine preventive health care. Many eye and vision conditions present no obvious symptoms. As such, individuals are often unaware that a problem exists. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for maintaining good vision and, when possible, will prevent permanent loss of vision.
Increased visual demands of our technological society bring about the need for regular eye care. While the incidence of ocular disease is low for young adults, vocational and recreational visual demands are significant. To maintain visual efficiency, productivity, and optimum eye health, periodic examinations are recommended.
