As a parent, you probably wonder when to schedule your child's first eye exam with a pediatric optometrist.
If your child has poor vision, they're not likely to tell you because what they experience is normal to them.
We find working with children is very rewarding.
There's nothing better than helping a child see clearly and realize there's a whole new world out there.
Infants should receive a comprehensive baseline eye exam between the ages of 6 and 12 months.

Generally speaking, the first half of adulthood presents very few vision issues - folks between 19 to 40.
Vision issues do become more prevalent in the second half of adulthood - people between 41 to 60.
Should you have any of these issues, Dr Giles and his team will provide an appropriate schedule of management and maintenance.
We find the most common complaint for people under the age of 40 is visual stress.
Staring long hours at a computer screen or working in poor light will cause visual stress.

Dr. Giles and his team are very experienced with Senior Eye Care and age-related eye issues and will do everything possible to help you manage and maintain your eyesight.
As we age the muscles that control our pupil size lose their strength.
It means less ambient light is entering your eye and you need increased light to read or see close work.
The lenses in your eye are changing and they cause light entering the eye to be scattered, rather than focused precisely on the retina.

Why?
Because it's the simplest way to determine if you have a chronic eye disease.
Monitoring for retinal changes can help prevent blindness and other diabetic complications.
