Eye Care for Seniors
At Kofsky Optometry we understand the unique visual needs and challenges that come with age. We prioritize the eye health and well-being of our mature-aged patients by offering specialized care and
thorough eye examinations.
Preserving Visual Health
Why seniors need an annual eye exam
As we age, our eyes undergo changes that can affect vision and overall eye health. Annual eye exams for seniors are essential to monitor these changes, ensuring early detection and prompt management of any developing conditions. Regular eye examinations allow us to tailor prescriptions for optimal visual clarity and identify issues that might otherwise go unnoticed, safeguarding your eyesight and quality of life.
If it’s been more than 12 months since your last eye exam, or you are experiencing changes with your vision, contact us for an appointment. Either book online or call 9371 0093 to arrange an appointment time that suits.
Beyond Vision
Unveiling Underlying Medical Conditions
Did you know that a comprehensive eye exam can also reveal potential medical conditions? High blood pressure, diabetes, and cardiovascular issues can often be detected through changes in the blood vessels of the eyes. By identifying these signs, we can collaborate with your healthcare team to ensure timely intervention and better overall health outcomes.
Navigating Visual Changes
Common Senior Eye Issues
Dry Eye
Many seniors experience dry eye syndrome due to changes in tear production and composition. Our tailored treatments provide relief from discomfort and maintain healthy tear film
integrity
Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in seniors. Early diagnosis through regular eye tests is crucial for managing this condition and preserving central vision
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, which is responsible for transmitting visual information form the eye to the brain. Glaucoma often develops without
noticeable symptoms, making regular eye tests vital for early detection. Our comprehensive assessments include measuring eye pressure and assessing optic nerve health.
Cataracts
Cataracts, a clouding of the lens, are a common age-related issue. We monitor cataract
development and provide guidance on when surgical intervention may be necessary. To find out more about cataracts
