We can’t stop time, but we can help and maintain our eye health!
As determined by the American Academy of Ophthalmology , September is Healthy Aging Month, a great opportunity to emphasize on the prevention of eye affections in older adults.
Some of these issues are:
Age-related macular degeneration
Diabetic eye disease
Glaucoma
Cataract
Inherited retinal diseases
In addition to check-ups, having a healthy lifestyle and frequently checking the eyes’ pressure and glucose levels is critical.
