Senior Eye Exams in Wichita, KS

As we age, eye care and optometric services become more and more important. Wichita Optometry is here for all your vision needs, including eye exams.

Common Types of Eye Problems 

 Most of us will develop eye care needs after the age 60. The majority of serious disorders of the eye and diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration (AMD) develop in our golden years.. Some other problems that may arise include:

• Spots, floaters and other changes within the eye
• Increasing dryness of the eyes, particularly in women
• Disorders of the retina

The Importance of a Vision Exam

Scheduling regular eye exams is important for seniors. The frequency of eye exams can vary dependent on the patient’s medical history and any existing eye conditions.

 The risks associated with age-related eye conditions and diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration will increase after the age of 60 as a person’s low light vision decreases along with color perception. Annual eye exams are advised and may need to be more frequent should eye conditions manifest.
