Aside from the potential visual impairment that can occur without proper eye care and check-ups, sight problems can affect a number of lifestyle elements and even impact your quality of life, especially in children who may be unaware of a problem. Thorough eye exams can also help to diagnose other problems such as diabetes and cancer. Good eye care (i.e. wearing your glasses) and regular eye tests help keep your eyes and sight healthy, and ensures you can get the most out of life without compromising the view.
