Senior Eye Care
Protecting Your Vision as You Age
As we age, our eyes require extra care to maintain healthy vision and prevent common age-related conditions. Senior eye care is essential for preserving sight, detecting early signs of disease, and improving quality of life. Here’s what you need to know about taking care of your eyes as you grow older.
If you notice any changes in your vision or you experience any discomfort or pain in your eyes, call us to book an eye examination. Early detection of problems can prevent more serious complications down the line.
Common Age-Related Eye Conditions
- Cataracts: Clouding of the eye’s lens, often leading to blurry vision. •
- Glaucoma: An eye disease causing damage to the optic nerve, glaucoma usually has no symptoms in the early stages but without detection and treatment it can potentially lead to blindness.
- Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD): Deterioration of the central part of the retina, causing difficulty with detailed taks such as reading or recognising faces.
- Dry Eye: Reduced tear production or poor tear quality, leading to discomfort, redness, and irritation.
