Diagnosing Eye Health

The best way to diagnose an eye disorder is by narrowing down the symptoms which often reflect your overall health. Allergies, diabetes, high blood pressure, stress, infections and being tired can have vision consequences. Typical eye symptoms include redness, itching and swelling…but sudden vision loss, flashes and floaters can mean a real emergency. The good news is that vision limitations like nearsightedness, farsightedness, macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma have never been more treatable with medication, lasers and surgery. Enhance the health of your eyes by making sure you get enough Vitamins A, C and E and beta-carotene. Know that your risk of macular degeneration, cataracts, and glaucoma increase as you age.
