Ophthalmic Freebie

Glaucoma accounts for 10% of blindness in the U.S. But because there often are no warning symptoms, half of the nearly 3 million Americans with glaucoma go undiagnosed until it is too late.

If you lack health insurance, you may be eligible for a free eye exam through the Eye Care America program of the Foundation of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Signs and Symptoms of
Eye Problems

Symptoms are the indications that a disease may be affecting the eye and surrounding tissues. A physician uses his or her expertise to sift through the symptoms and ask the appropriate questions to decide on the possible diagnosis. Not all symptoms are of equal severity or urgency, but it is important to seek medical help if they are affecting vision. We present a list of symptoms, which may be helpful to understand what problem may be present.

 

Signs and Symptoms of Eye Problems

 

Sight is precious, considered by many to be the most essential of the five senses. Regular eye examinations are important to maintain proper eye health, since some serious eye disorders produce no early warning symptoms. Although prevention is the best defense, eye problems or injuries still can occur suddenly and unexpectedly. And when they do, recognizing their signs and symptoms and knowing what to do is vital to preserving sight.
