Changes in vision aren’t always sudden or dramatic. Gradual blur, increased eye strain, headaches, or difficulty with fine detail can indicate underlying eye conditions that benefit from early assessment.

A comprehensive eye examination helps determine whether changes are age-related, temporary, or require further investigation or treatment.

Conditions such as glaucoma, retinal disease, and macular degeneration can progress quietly, often without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. By the time vision changes are obvious, damage may already be advanced.

Routine eye examinations and appropriate imaging allow early changes to be detected, monitored, and managed before irreversible vision loss occurs.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the most common causes of vision loss in older adults.

AMD affects the macula, the part of the eye responsible for sharp, central vision needed for reading, recognising faces, and daily activities. In its early stages, AMD may cause little or no noticeable symptoms, which is why regular eye examinations are so important.

Early detection, ongoing monitoring, and appropriate management can help slow progression and protect quality of life.

If you’re over 50, have a family history of AMD, or have noticed changes in your central vision, now is the right time to have your eyes checked.

It’s Glaucoma Awareness Month.

Glaucoma can develop quietly, often without early symptoms. That’s why regular eye examinations and ongoing monitoring are essential in detecting it early and helping prevent permanent vision loss.

If it’s been a while since your last eye exam, or if you’ve noticed any changes in your vision, now is the right time to have your eyes checked.

Glaucoma often has no early warning signs.

It can develop slowly and silently, affecting vision before you even notice a change.
