Have you ever heard someone marvel at being able to see individual leaves on trees after putting on eyeglasses for the first time (like in the picture to the right)?
Has your child complained about not being able to see the board at school, or getting headaches when reading?
When you’re not seeing clearly, things can get kind of … fuzzy. It may be time for a visit to the eye doctor.
But not seeing well is just one reason to get an eye exam.
The other, often overlooked, yet essential reason for routine eye care is to have a medical professional check your eyes for signs of serious medical conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol.
While vision screening is covered as a preventive service for children on all Affordable Care Act compliant health insurance plans, coverage for complete eye exams is typically NOT included in your health insurance.
But eye care can get pretty costly.
