These conditions affect how the eye is shaped. Emmetropia is a normal shaped eye with correct refraction.
Symptoms of refractive errors can be:
- Squinting
- Eyestrain
- Difficulty seeing at night
- Blurry or fuzzy vision
- Headaches
Common refractive errors can be corrected by eyeglasses,
contact lenses, or laser surgery.
Annual eye exams are recommended every year before age 18,
and after age 65, every two years in between. Unless a medical or eye problem occurs
that requires more frequent attention.
To avoid these common disorders and injury to the eye:
- Regular Eye Exams
- Wear protective eyewear
- Take breaks during screen time
- Maintain a healthy diet
- Limit alcohol intake
