Eye Health Information for Adults Over 65

It’s important to have a complete eye exam with your ophthalmologist every year or two after age 65.

Keeping up with regular eye exams allows your ophthalmologist to catch problems early. The sooner a problem is detected, the more likely it is that treatment will be successful.

The Academy recommends adults age 65 and older see their ophthalmologist for a complete eye exam every year or every other year.

During regular eye exams, your ophthalmologist will check for age-related eye diseases, including:

age-related macular degeneration

diabetic retinopathy

glaucoma

cataract
