Why Are Eye Exams Important?

(Picture) Refracting mobileyes & office)

Nearly all Americans believe their eye health is just as important as the health of their heart, but nearly half of those, ages 23-38, don’t think they need an eye exam if their vision is clear, according to American Optometric Associations's (AOA) Eye-Q ® Survey 2020. It’s time to turn belief into action: making a Comprehensive Eye Exam a critical part of your overall health maintenance, equal to your annual physical with your primary care physician.

According to Eye-Q, one in five Americans say an eye health professional detected or diagnosed a non-eye related health issue. In that same survey, one-fourth of those Americans note that an eye health professional detected “floaters” in their eyes, which may signal a risk or onset of diabetes.

Early Detection

Since many vision issues show no obvious signs or symptoms, the only way to truly get the “all-clear!” is by seeing having a check-up. At Mobileyes we will complete all testing needed including your overall health and family history, eye or vision symptoms, medications, and potential work-related or environmental issues that may affect your vision. You will also partake in preliminary tests such as depth perception, color vision, eye muscle movements, peripheral or side vision, and how your pupils respond to light.

Why Are Eye Exams Needed?

- Eye exams help children succeed in school

Vision screenings are no substitute for an eye exam. Too often, parents are led to believe their child is seeing perfectly well because they pass a school vision screening or pediatrician screening. Adults think they see perfectly

because they pass a vision screening at the motor vehicle department. Neither of these assumptions are correct, ONLY a complete eye exam will confirm if your vision is perfect with no aid (eyeglasses or contact lenses)

Pediatricians and school screenings test your children with basic shapes and letters. They are required to see 20/40 at your pediatric office and 20/32 during school screenings. We are always trying to provide perfect vision, which is 20/20. Your child always deserves the best vision possible. Schedule your eye exam today!

- Myopia High Incidence in Children, Big Concern!

The number of children who are developing myopia (nearsightedness) is growing faster than ever. And more kids are getting nearsighted at a very early age.

Why is this a big concern?

Children who become nearsighted very early in life tend to experience a worsening and progression of nearsightedness that continues throughout childhood. This will put them at a significantly greater risk of very serious and potentially sight-threatening eye conditions later in life, including cataracts, glaucoma and retinal detachment.

Scheduling annual eye exams is the best way to assess your child's risk of myopia. When detected early, myopia control measures can be taken to slow the progression of myopia and reduce your child’s risk of serious eye problems later in life.

Glaucoma

(picture close up eye)

Of all serious eye diseases, glaucoma is probably the most silent condition. There are usually no symptoms related to it. During your comprehensive consultation you will receive glaucoma testing and retinal imaging to help prevent this silent disease.

People who fail to have routine eye exams and develop glaucoma typically become aware of it only after they’ve sustained permanent vision loss from the disease. And by that time, controlling glaucoma to prevent additional vision loss can be very difficult. Without successful control with medical treatment and/or glaucoma surgery, the disease can lead to blindness.

Early detection of high eye pressure and other risk factors for glaucoma is possible only with routine eye exams. Vision screenings do little to nothing to identify or prevent glaucoma.

Annual Eye Exams Can Detect Other Serious Health Problems

Did you know that many people first learn they have serious health conditions such as: diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and even cancer from a routine eye exam.

During a comprehensive eye exam, we will observe and evaluate the health and condition of the blood vessels in your retina.

Annual eye exams are especially important for anyone with diabetes or who might be at risk for the disease (due to obesity, family history or other reasons). More than 30 million Americans with diabetes and another 84 million who have prediabetes are at risk for developing diabetic eye disease, the leading cause of blindness among adults. In its early stages, diabetic eye disease has no visible symptoms; only a comprehensive eye exam can detect signs of the disease so treatment can begin soon enough to prevent vision loss.

Will FOG-B-GONE completely remove the fog on my lenses forever?

No, it will not. FOG-B-GONE will need to be reapplied based on the exposure to heat-cold and moisture.

We recommend you to reapply FOG-B-GOne to your lenses at least twice a day. If you are outdoors often or going in and out of a building, constantly changing temperatures, you will need to reapply often.

Is FOG-B-GONE a desinfectant?

No, FOG-B-GONE is not a disinfectant. FOG-B-GONE will remove dirt and dust from your lenses. Please follow CDC guidelines about disinfecting possibilities for eyeglasses.

We recommend you to reapply FOG-B-GOne to your lenses at least twice a day. If you are outdoors often or going in and out o a building, constantly changing temperatures, you will need to reapply often.

For maximum FOG-FREE time, we recommend you to purchase our FOG-B-GONE KIT and Our TOTAL FOG-FREE CLOTH.

I keep spraying FOG-B-GONE in my lenses and they still fog up. What is happening?

Your eyeglasses must be directly touching your face. If you have nose pads in your eyewear, make sure they are extended to help with the airflow below your eye-rims. If you have plastic frames we recommend getting some pads to lift up the frame away from your face oils and sweat.

When you have the need to wear a facemask, there are a few tips that will help FOG-B-GONE's anti-FOG effects last longer:

Purchase a mask with a metal clip on the top side of the mask. Shape up the metallic strip and cover all-around your nose bridge.
Allow the minimum amount of air exit through the top of your mask directly into your lenses. This will help FOG-B-GONE's anti-fog effect last longer and your lenses will be clear and clean for long periods of time.
Always clean your lenses after wetting them with FOG-B-GONE. Cleaning your lenses dry will scratch and ruin the protective coatings on your lenses.
Remember to always reapply the product. Rub your lenses in a circular motion while the solution is on the lenses and wipe off all the excess. With your DRY-CLEAN lenses use your TOTAL FOG FREE cloth!
