How often should I have my eyes examined?
You should have your eyes examined yearly until your early 20’s, then every 2 years may be sufficient.  You must have your eyes examined yearly if you are a contact lens wearer.
 
Is looking at a computer screen all day going to change my eye sight?
If you are in your 20’s or younger, it is possible that using a computer for several hours a day can make you more nearsighted. Everyone who uses a computer for an extended amount of time benefits from short breaks. Special computer lenses are available for those who need a progressive lens, and we recommend anti-reflective lenses to reduce glare.
 
Do I need special eyewear if I play sports?
Protective eyewear is recommended for those who play sports with a high velocity ball, such as racquetball.  In all sports, check with your eye doctor to see if contact lenses are an option.
 
If I wear my glasses less, will my eyesight improve?
Check with your eye doctor to see if contact lenses are an option for you.  By not wearing your glasses, you may not be seeing as well at school as you should, and you may even get headaches.
 
I had laser surgery when I was younger.  Will my eyesight change as I get older or am I fixed for life?
Your eyesight will probably stay the same at distance, but will change at near distance as your eyes lose their ability to focus.
