OPHTHALMOLOGISTS

Ophthalmologists are Medical Doctors (M.D.) or Doctors of Osteopathy (D.O.) who specialize in the medical and surgical care of the eyes and in the prevention of eye disease and injury.


20 Reasons to See an Ophthalmologist

A recent survey found that only half of Americans see an eye care professional on a regular basis. Here’s what the other half needs to know.


September IS ... Healthy Aging Month 

Presbyopia is when your eyes gradually lose the ability to see things clearly up close. It is a normal part of aging. In fact, the term “presbyopia” comes from a Greek word which means “old eye.” You may start to notice presbyopia shortly after age 40. You will probably find that you hold reading materials farther away in order to see them clearly.

There is no way to stop or reverse the normal aging process that causes presbyopia. However, presbyopia can be corrected with eyeglassescontact lenses, medication, or surgery. If you do not correct presbyopia, you may be bothered by headaches and eye strain.

Be sure to see your ophthalmologist regularly for eye exam. An ophthalmologist can also help detect age-related vision changes that complicate your life. Regular eye exams with an ophthalmologist help protect your remaining healthy vision.
