What Are the Benefits of a Routine Eye Exam? 

At your annual eye exam in Spokane Valley, your optometrist will provide you with immediate feedback about the health of your eyes. They will test for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, focusing problems, other vision issues, and eye diseases. Based on their findings, they will provide you with a treatment plan and helpful information you need to know about your vision and eye health.  

Perhaps the greatest benefit of routine eye exams is their ability to prevent degenerative eye diseases. Healthy vision requires regular maintenance and care. Neglecting to get your eyes checked by a qualified optometrist can lead to the development of eye issues that can progress over time and have significant long-term effects, including blindness. Certain diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy have no symptoms in the early stages—they can develop slowly and without pain. If left undiagnosed, these diseases often have irreversible consequences. Seeing an eye doctor on a regular basis can protect your vision through early diagnosis and treatment.
