If you have diabetes Type 1 or Type 2, diabetic eye care is important. If you have experienced vision loss or noticed changes in your vision, it is important to talk to your eye doctor. Depending on your condition, your doctor may recommend that a 6-month checkup is needed in between your annual eye exams. The purpose of diabetic eye checks is to monitor the health of your eyes and detect changes along the way.
Discover Vision offers eye exams in Independence, MO. The frequency of routine eye exams may vary depending on your age as well as other factors such as wearing glasses or contact lenses, or if you have been diagnosed with certain eye conditions. Routine eye exams are performed by our optometrists to check the overall health of your eyes, and to provide a prescription for those who use corrective lenses. Annual eye exams are the best way to detect serious eye conditions before they progress.

Presbyopia is a condition that will affect each and every one of us. Presbyopia happens as a result of getting older and is caused by the natural lens in the eye losing its flexibility with age.

Astigmatism is a type of refractive error where the lens inside your eye is shaped more like a football than a perfect sphere. With astigmatism, light that enters your eye lacks a specific focal point which results in blurry vision or distorted images.
