Vision correction is just one reason for an eye exam. Your eye doctor may even spot other conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes – and that’s when treatment may be most effective.1 And while eye care is important for adults, it’s also important for children to have regular vision screenings. After all, healthy eyes may be critical to a child's development.
