It’s a common myth that you only need an annual eye exam if you have poor vision or changes in vision. Even if you see well and think you have perfect vision, you still need a professional check-up of your eyes. Some eye conditions don’t show immediate symptoms, but an eye doctor or ophthalmologist can identify early warning signs and get you the treatment you need to protect your vision and health. Call now to schedule your annual eye exam with Arizona Eye Consultants.

Tips for preparing for recovery from cataract surgery: Before you undergo cataract surgery, make sure you have a safe, quiet, and comfortable place to recover. Ask a friend or family member to stay with you for the first week or so, as you may be tired or have trouble with daily tasks. Consider arranging for a meal delivery service or making and freezing meals ahead of time. Fill all necessary prescriptions pre-surgery and make sure you understand how and when to take your medications. As you recover, follow your eye surgeon's recommendations carefully. Don’t wear eye makeup, rub or touch your eyes, or get water in your eyes. Wear protective eyewear and avoid strenuous activities, and use your eyedrops and take your medication as recommended.

What are specialty contact lenses, and do you need them? Specialty contact lenses are custom-made lenses that correct unique vision problems like keratoconus, severe astigmatism, or presbyopia. You might need them if you have an eye condition that makes it hard to fit standard lenses, or that can’t be corrected with standard lenses. You might also benefit from specialty lenses if you have severe dry eye syndrome. Call now to schedule an exam and find out if you’re a good candidate.

The board-certified doctors at Arizona Eye Consultants of Tucson provide exceptional dry eye care so you can enjoy better vision and quality of life.

If you’re experiencing a sudden or severe decrease in peripheral vision, you may have a serious underlying eye condition. Common causes of changes in peripheral vision include eye injury, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, detached retina, concussion or head injury, or retinitis pigmentosa. Some people also experience vision changes at the onset of a migraine or due to a stroke or TIA. It’s important to visit an ophthalmologist or call 911 if you have severe vision changes like a loss of peripheral vision.
