Having good vision is important for most people, but as we age our eye health can decline. This can lead to issues like dry eyes, glaucoma, or macular degeneration. Fortunately, there are ways to maintain healthy eyes, including getting regular eye exams and wearing glasses. But if you have more serious eye problems, your optometrist college station can refer you to an ophthalmologist for treatment. When choosing an eye care provider, ask for recommendations from friends and family. Also, read online reviews and check with your insurance company.
