The Treatable Condition That’s Slowly Weakening Your Eyes.
What if you knew you had an eye condition that was slowly weakening your eyes? What if that condition was completely treatable? Enter: EYE-Q. It’s our mission to educate people to help them see their best. Today, we want to talk to you about myopia, more commonly known as nearsightedness.
The Down-Low:
When’s the last time you had trouble focusing on an object or sign in the distance? Do you notice yourself squinting to more clearly see distant objects? Have you experienced repeated blurred vision, headaches, or eye strain? If you’re familiar with these symptoms, it’s probably time to consult your optometrist. Further, annual eye exams can help diagnose myopia and determine if your myopia can be causing any other issues.
The Good News:
Myopia is treatable! Common treatment practice is simple: Corrective eyeglasses or contact lenses will do the trick. In adult cases that have already been treated for years, LASIK eye surgery may also be an option.
