As Cataract Awareness Month comes to an end, here's one last tip to help you stay ahead of vision loss: your annual eye exam.

We’ve been sharing stories and insights all month long—and one of the most important takeaways is this:
Cataracts often develop slowly, and you might not notice the changes right away.

That’s why routine eye exams are so important, especially if you’re over 50. Your annual visit allows your eye doctor to spot cataracts and other age-related changes before they start affecting your day-to-day life.

📆 If it’s been more than a year, now’s the time to get your exam on the calendar.

- Colors appear faded or yellowed
- Frequent changes in glasses prescription

If you’re over 55, an annual eye exam can help detect cataracts early.
