Women are so busy with work, family, and friends that eye health may be at the bottom of the to do list. When is the last time you had your eyes examined? Chances are that if you don?t notice a visual disturbance you don?t give eye health a second thought but maybe you should.
As you age and your hormones change so does your eye health. Minimal changes in moisture outside and also the level of fluid inside the eye change and may affect your eye health. Many time women ( and men too) will go to the store and buy over the counter ?cheater? glasses when they feel they need to magnify their vision for reading. That is all fine and good, many of those glasses work well as long as your eyes are healthy but an initial eye exam should be done to confirm eye health.
Glaucoma and macular degeneration are two of the eye conditions that should be diagnosed early to protect and maintain vision. These cannot be fixed with over the counter glasses or over the counter medications. These conditions can also be mistaken for normal changes in vision with age until it is too late to make a difference. Early detection in the case of eye conditions is imperative.
Allergies that affect the eye can also be better treated sometimes with prescription medications rather than self diagnosing and treating with over the counter medications. After an initial eye exam and diagnosis, your physician may then offer over the counter suggestions to keep allergies at a minimum. The same rule goes with conditions that look like viral pink eye. It is best to have your doctor look at eyes that are red, inflammed, or draining rather than self treat.
The best treatment for changes in vision is to have an eye exam to rule out other medical conditions that affect eye health. If you have not had an eye exam in the last year or two, schedule one today. It will be good for your eye health and better for your over all state of health.
