When it comes to eye health, patients often have common questions about when to schedule an exam, what to expect, and how to prepare. At Executive Park Eye Care, we’re here to provide clear answers to help you maintain healthy vision. Below are some frequently asked questions, optimized to help you easily find the information you need.

How Often Should I Get an Eye Exam?

We recommend scheduling a comprehensive eye exam once a year to monitor your vision and overall eye health.

What Are the Signs That I Need an Eye Exam Sooner Than Recommended?

If you experience any of the following symptoms, schedule an exam immediately:

  • Sudden vision loss in one or both eyes
  • Eye pain or discomfort
  • Blurred or worsening vision

Does My Age or Medical History Affect How Often I Should Get My Eyes Checked?

Yes! Patients with progressive ocular conditions or a family history of eye disease may need more frequent exams to ensure early detection and management.

What Is the Difference Between a Vision Screening and a Comprehensive Eye Exam?

A vision screening is a basic assessment of how clearly you see, often conducted at schools or workplaces. A comprehensive eye exam, however, includes a full evaluation of your eye health, how well your eyes work together, and an accurate prescription for corrective lenses if needed.

How Can I Prepare for My Next Eye Exam for the Most Accurate Results?

To ensure a smooth and effective exam, be sure to:

  • Bring your current eyeglasses and contact lenses
  • Have a list of all medications you're taking
  • Write down any vision concerns or symptoms you’re experiencing
