Critical to Your Overall Health

EyeMed’s quality vision care program is important to every member of your family. Sadly, less than 50% of Americans get eye exams more frequently than every two years despite the fact that most adults consider vision their most important sense. One in five people are at risk for vision loss, and many of the problems could have been addressed through preventive care.

But annual eye exams not only help correct vision problems; comprehensive eye exams can also reveal the warning signs of more serious undiagnosed health problems such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. No matter what the age, eye exams are important to our productivity and health.
