General Eye Health & Screening

Why regular eye checks matter

Good vision depends not only on clear eyes today, but also on protecting them for the future. Regular eye checks are important, especially if you have risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, family history of eye disease, or are over the age of 50.

A routine eye health assessment can detect
  • Cataracts
  • Glaucoma
  • Macular degeneration
  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Corneal and eyelid conditions

Even if you feel your vision is fine, some eye diseases develop silently and may only be noticed once damage has occurred. Early detection allows for timely treatment and can prevent permanent vision loss.

Preventative lifestyle choices

Your overall health has a powerful effect on your eyes. Looking after your body is one of the best ways to protect your sight. Important steps include:

How often should I have an eye check?
  • Adults over 50: every 1–2 years
  • People with diabetes or glaucoma: at least once a year, or as advised by your doctor
  • Anyone with sudden changes in vision should be checked promptly
