How often should you get your eyes tested?
General eye examinations are important for people of all ages. We offer comprehensive adult and paediatric eye tests in Sydney, allowing you to monitor and care for both your vision and that of your child.
Infants
All infants should have their eyes examined by a qualified doctor by the age of six months. Any disease or condition which would prevent the infant from seeing clearly and simultaneously during this time with both eyes may result in not developing stereo vision. After nine months of age, intervention to correct the primary problem will be too late for developing stereo vision in the infant.
Toddlers
Toddlers should undertake paediatric eye tests at the age of 3 and 5, even if there is not a history of eye problems in the family. Any disease or condition which would prevent the child from seeing clearly and simultaneously during this time with both eyes may result in the child having a "lazy eye" or "crossed eyes". Lazy eyes and even crossed eyes are not detectable by simply looking at the child. Special testing by an eye doctor is required to determine what the problem is. This is a treatable problem and must be detected early in order to ensure a more favourable outcome. After six years of age the prognosis for success is much lower.
Adolescents
Adolescents should undertake general eye tests every year until they are finished with high school and even college to ensure they are performing well. Poor visual skills can hinder their ability to learn well in school.
Ages 19 to 39
Most young adults have prescriptions that have stabilised and should submit to a general eye test every two years. Even if you think you see well, the eye doctor is also checking the health of your eye.
Age 40 and up
Every year would be prudent at this time. The incidence of ocular complications from glaucoma, high blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid problems, cataracts and arthritis increase substantially with time
