May is Healthy Vision Month
May is Healthy Vision Month!
"Your Eyes are the Windows to Your Health. Schedule an Eye Exam." That is the theme as the National Eye Institute (NEI) devotes its May 2012 observance of Healthy Vision Month to the importance of comprehensive dilated eye exams in maintaining healthy vision.Millions of people living in the United States have undetected vision problems, eye diseases, and conditions.
One of the most important things people can do to protect their vision is to schedule a comprehensive dilated eye exam. In this painless procedure, an eye care professional examines the eyes to look for common vision problems and eye diseases, many of which have no early warning signs. A comprehensive dilated eye exam can detect eye diseases and conditions in their early stages, before vision loss occurs. Early detection and treatment can help to save your sight.
