👁️ Dr Aaron Ng, Associate Consultant from the National Healthcare Group Eye Institute at TTSH, shared valuable insights on common age-related eye problems.

He discussed presbyopia, cataracts, floaters, and glaucoma—covering their tell-tale signs and how they can be managed. While these conditions are typically associated with ageing, they can also affect younger adults and individuals with certain medical conditions.

Dr Ng also discussed general tips on caring for our eyes as we age. Regular eye screenings every 1 to 2 years (starting from age 50) play a key role in future-proofing your vision!
