Comprehensive Eye Care
Comprehensive Eye Care at Curts & Reed Optometry in Olathe, KS
Your eyes gradually change, and so can your vision and prescription needs. That is why annual eye exams are so important!
Your eyes can change over time. This occurs as part of the natural aging process. Visiting your primary care doctor annually is critical to managing your overall health. Getting your eye checked every year is just as crucial for maintaining overall eye and vision health. If you have diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, high cholesterol, or thyroid disease, your vision and eye health could be affected. Also, certain medications can cause visual side effects. If you have not seen your eye doctor in the past 12 months, please call Reed Family Vision today at 913-732-2552 for your annual Comprehensive Eye Exam!
What is a comprehensive eye Exam?
It involves a thorough examination of your eyes and vision. Our doctor will ask you about your personal medical and ocular history, family medical and ocular history, and medications you are taking. All of these areas can affect your vision and eye health.
The comprehensive eye exam includes diagnostic tests to assess your overall eye health. At Curts & Reed Optometry in Olathe, KS, we use the latest technology in medical equipment that allows our eye doctors to provide the very best quality of care for you and your family.
Should my kids get their eyes checked?
Children grow so fast, and their vision is vastly different from adults. Toddlers, school-age kids, and adolescents have different vision needs, so it is essential to have their eyes thoroughly examined yearly.
Experts report that 80% of learning is visual, and many learning issues can be eye-related. Symptoms of vision issues can include headache, excessive squinting, and tiredness from schoolwork.
The American Optometric Association recommends kids have their first eye exam between 6-12 months, then at age 3, and annually starting at age 5.
How long does a comprehensive eye exam take?
A Comprehensive Eye Exam can take up to 1 hour. It’s a complete workup for your eye health and vision needs. At Reed Family Vision, we ensure you see your best and that your eyes remain healthy for life.
Everyone’s eyes are different. Our eye doctor will create a customized treatment plan for your eyes and needs.
Can Comprehensive eye Exams diagnose underlying health ISSUES?
Yes, sometimes long before other symptoms are present. Comprehensive Eye Exams can reveal conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and even brain tumor. That is why recommended yearly eye exams are so crucial. Please call Reed Family Vision today to schedule your Comprehensive Eye Exam if you have not had your eyes checked in the last 12 months!
