Prevent Blindness has designated April as Women’s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month!
🔎 Did you know that women make up most of the 4.4 million Americans age 40+ who are visually impaired or blind?
These are the most common diagnoses for women, that could cause vision loss if left untreated:
🔹Cataracts, a clouding of the eye*
🔹Diabetic-retinopathy, causes damage to the blood vessels in the back of the eye
🔹Glaucoma, damage to the optic nerve, often accompanied with increased eye pressure
🔹Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), gradually affects central vision
*cataract surgery is the most commonly performed procedure globally.
The easiest way to test for many of these common eye problems is to schedule your annual eye exam!
Early detection is key.
