Thorough Care for Your Vision
Your eyes are essential to your everyday life, allowing you to explore the world around you and make memories to last a lifetime. Ensuring your vision is clear and focused through comprehensive eye exams is vital to your overall health.
Whether finding the right prescription lenses or monitoring for eye diseases, a thorough eye exam gives your doctor the chance to provide you with the vision care you need.
What’s the Deal with Eye Exams?
Maybe you’re looking forward to your first eye exam and don’t know what to expect. You may have had one before and been unsure about the purpose. At Northern Lights Eyecare, we want to ensure you’re comfortable and understand everything we do to care for your vision.
During the exam, your eye doctor typically uses a series of tests to determine if you have a refractive error like nearsightedness or farsightedness. On top of that, they can perform other tests specially designed to diagnose and monitor eye diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and more.
How Often Should You Have an Eye Exam?
Your recommended eye exam frequency is based on your age. According to the Canadian Association of Optometrists:
- Adults aged 20–39 should visit once every 2 to 3 years
- Adults aged 40–64 should visit once every 2 years
- Adults aged 65 and older should visit once every year
