So even if I’ve never needed glasses in my whole life, I should be getting eye exams? 🤔

what is the earliest you should be seeing an eye doctor like when should my child see one?

Honestly I’d say the majority of emergency referrals done at my place are for people who came in without any concerns or symptoms

My eye doctor found my idiopathic intracranial hypertension from a yearly eye exam. I always tell people to go every year. So important!

Should show a picture of cancerous choroidal nevus. A lot of them go undetected until it’s too late.

31yo went to dr for first time and was told I have retinal degeneration. After googling I realized how bad this is. I used to always say I have 20/20.

My optometrist found a retina tear at my annual - no symptoms yet. Prescription was unchanged though 😳 Straight to Retina specialist. Very grateful.

Recently diagnosed with a retinal hemangioma, after the regular eye exam. There isn’t much information online and my Ophthalmologist says they’re rare. Curious how often you see them?

As an Optician I’ve caught numerous cases of diabetes and I once caught a brain tumor. Obviously the OD formally diagnosed. Get your eyes checked!!

I put off eye exams because my mom is blind. Nothing can be done if I get it. I have a 75% chance of getting it…

Just caught intermediate NPDR in an older man who hasn’t had an eye exam since he was diagnosed diabetic in 2014. Cotton wool spots everywhere! He was so thankful

100%! It is nothing to do with being able to see or not. It’s what we don’t see that the Dr.’s do see. That’s what my eye dr. tells me as well.

I had some other form of drusen. Initially it looked like this upon further inspection it looked diff. Sent to a specialist and it was some form that very “ fair” ppl can have. It wasn’t there, then

Ophthalmologists and Optometrists can detect cancers that do no change vision. Iritis can be an indication of other arthritis. See your eye Dr.

I squint with glasses. But I can’t get an appointment for months for those that take my insurance. My mom has ocular dystrophy so it’s worrying.
