Family History – Many eye conditions are genetically linked

Systemic Disease Affects The Eye – Hypertension, diabetes and chronic diseases often damage the circulation of the eye

Prevention is Better Than Cure – Eye disease damage can be permanent. Fortunately many conditions can be prevented if detected an early stage.

Environmental Concerns - Environmental conditions such as computer use, UV exposure and smoking can all play a role in affecting the human eye and vision system.

Vision Is Our Most Important Learning Sense – A child’s learning is 80% visual. Therefore it is highly recommended that all children be seen before 4 years of age to rule out any ocular development problems at an early stage

Prescription Drugs Can Affect Your Eyes – Many drugs can cause side effects or discomfort to the eyes thereby necessitating regular ocular monitoring

Contact Lens Wearers – Contact Lenses can cause subtle changes to the cornea. Contact lenses should be inspected on a regular basis to determine their integrity and wearing safety.

Previous Surgical Patients – Patients who have had Cataract, Retinal or Laser Correction surgery require close monitoring for future changes to the eye tissue

Maintain Clear, Comfortable and Efficient Vision – The human eye is a finely tuned instrument, a ‘wonder of nature’ that requires expert attention on a regular basis
