Symptoms and Diagnostic Path. Symptoms vary with the type and severity of the hypersensitivity reaction. Itching and skin rash or URTICARIA (hives) are common with type I hypersensitivity reactions. Symptoms may involve the airways (allergic asthma) or gastrointestinal tract (food allergies).
Vision Insurance. Beyond helping maintain healthy vision, eye exams can help spot high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and even brain tumors. We designed our vision plan so individuals and their families can be more proactive about caring for their vision. Ask your employer about Aflac Vision insurance.
Optometrists-What They Do. Optometrists, also known as doctors of optometry, or ODs, are the main providers of vision care. They examine people's eyes to diagnose vision problems, such as nearsightedness and farsightedness, and they test patients' depth and color perception and ability to focus and coordinate the eyes.
