An eye exam allows you to be certain that your eyes and vision are in<br>good condition and alert you about age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, <a href=\"https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/service\/cataract-surgery-in-mumbai\/\">cataracts<\/a>, and<br>refractive errors at an early stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Detecting other diseases<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to protecting your vision, routine eye exams can aid in the early detection of conditions like<br>cancer and diabetes. Numerous genetic diseases in infants can be identified at birth with an eye test. In<br>addition, major illnesses, including hypertension, high cholesterol, heart issues, or thyroid-related<br>issues, might be detected during an eye exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Maintaining eye health<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are aware of the importance of eye care, you will also understand the importance of maintaining<br>the overall health of your eyes. The eyes are exposed to several variables in daily life. Therefore, it is<br>challenging to keep your eyes healthy. Don&#8217;t wait till they begin to deteriorate. To safeguard your eyes<br>and maintain eye health, it is crucial to see an eye specialist to learn about eye relaxation, a good diet,<br>and apt screen time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Detecting genetic factors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Genes significantly influence vision in eyes that may otherwise seem healthy. Thus, correcting inherited<br>eye problems might be aided by early diagnosis. Eye exams are crucial for diagnosing genetic eye<br>abnormalities such as strabismus, colour vision issues, amblyopia, <a href=\"https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/service\/glaucoma-surgery-in-mumbai\/\">glaucoma<\/a>, and refractive errors,<br>keratoconus among others, so you can receive the best possible care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Tracking eye prescription<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A yearly eye exam can determine whether you need to wear glasses to correct your eyesight. Using<br>eyeglasses is a simple technique to improve your eyesight and correct refractive problems. If you<br>already wear glasses, you should get checked if any change in your prescription because your eyesight<br>may vary over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">What is a routine eye care procedure like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Krishna Eye Centre, our <a href=\"https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/eye-specialist-in-mumbai\/\">eye specialists<\/a> carry out meticulous and detailed eye checkups for all<br>patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Krishna Eye Center Infrastructure\" class=\"wp-image-2103\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/krishnaeyecenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/krishnaeyecenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/krishnaeyecenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/krishnaeyecenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/krishnaeyecentre.com\/krishnaeyecenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kec-gallery-infra-03.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>The procedure may include a combination of the following tests:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Medical History<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Doctor just enquires about the eye complaint that brought you to the clinic.<br>\u25cf The doctor asks you about your past medical, and surgical history and concerns with your eyes<br>and general health.<br>\u25cf He may inquire about your current medications and any family history of the disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Visual acuity<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Your vision will be tested for both close and distant objects.
