Vision Effects on Quality of Life

Sight is one of our most valued senses. The majority of knowledge we have about the world around us comes through our eyes. Even though most people recognize how precious sight is, many are not taking the necessary steps to have optimal vision and to protect their eye health.

Issues due to Reduced Vision

Reduced vision can result in social isolation, depression, increased risk of falling and accidents, and ultimately a greater tendency to be disabled. It is important for you to visit your eye care professional for annual comprehensive eye exams to ensure not only optimal vision, but your health and safety as well.
