How Often Should You Have an Eye Exam?
Regular eye exams help keep your vision healthy and detect issues early. We recommend the following eye exam frequency:
- Children: Every year to support healthy development and learning.
- Adults: Every 1 to 2 years, or sooner if vision changes.
- Seniors: At least once a year to monitor age-related eye conditions.
- High-Risk Individuals: More frequent exams for diabetes, high blood pressure, or family history of eye disease.
Even if your vision feels fine, regular check-ups help catch problems early and keep your eyes healthy for years to come.


What to Expect During Your Eye Exam
Regular eye exams are essential for adults and seniors to maintain clear vision and detect early signs of eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetes-related changes. During an exam, our optometrists assess:
- Visual acuity and refractive errors
- Depth perception and eye muscle coordination
- Eye health, including internal and external structures
- Early signs of systemic or ocular conditions
Adult and senior exams may include dilation, diagnostic imaging, and vision testing. Our team also provides recommendations for glasses or contact lenses as needed.
Eye Exams for Children
We make eye exams fun and comfortable for kids, with a relaxed environment and a wide selection of children’s eyewear. Annual eye exams are recommended for children to support healthy vision, detect early issues, and help them succeed at school and in sports.
