Early eye care plays a vital role in supporting healthy visual development. Through the InfantSEE® program, children ages 6 to 12 months can receive a comprehensive eye assessment at no cost, helping providers identify potential concerns early and ensure children begin life with the strongest visual foundation possible.

UAB Eye Care is proud to participate in this national initiative and to serve families who prioritize early vision health.

❤️ We're wearing red for National Wear Red Day to raise awareness about heart disease and to remind our community that your eyes can provide important clues about your heart health.

During a comprehensive eye exam, our doctors can detect early signs of high blood pressure, diabetes and diabetic retinopathy, high cholesterol, and even risk for stroke because the eyes are the only place in the body where blood vessels can be seen directly.

Changes in these vessels often appear in the eyes before symptoms develop elsewhere. Protect your vision and your heart by scheduling your annual eye exam with UAB Eye Care.
