Have a yearly exam...even if you don't need glasses

This guy is cute...but do you really want him seeing for you?

I am often asked, "Do I need a yearly exam? I don't wear glasses."

I always answer yes. I will always answer yes. Why? Because an eye exam is not always about glasses. An eye exam every year can detect problems that you might not know you have. Debilitating eye diseases like glaucoma are not something you notice, at least until you are bumping into things because your peripheral vision is shot. By then it's too late. It's German Shepard time. And by that I mean "the German Shepard that will leading you around for the rest of your life" time.

Eye exams are less expensive than German Shepards. Not as cute, but less expensive. So schedule one every year.
