Your child should have their first official exam as a newborn at the hospital soon after birth. This is to check the placement and structure of the eyes. After that it is a good idea to have your child’s sight checked every 2-4 years from ages 1 to 18. If your child is high risk for developing conditions due to substance abuse of the mother or cervicovaginal infection, exams may need to be conducted more often.

• Adults aged 20-49 should have an exam every 3 to 5 years
• Older adults who are ages 40-64 should have an exam every 2 to 4 years
• Seniors ages 65 an older should be examined every 1 to 2 years
• High risk adults such as ones with diabetes, a family history of glaucoma, patients with HIV/AIDs, and people who have taken medication which could cause toxicity to the orbitals should have an examination more often.

As we age, our ocular health begins to deteriorate. Preventative medicine is imperative to keep your optics at their best. There are many conditions, including aging, which could aid in the development of ocular disease. Routine check-ups by your local doctor and the knowledge to receive immediate care if you are suffering from blurriness or pain behind the orbitals is so important. See your specialist for routine care if you fall into one of the following categories.

• You have a family history of any degree of blindness or eye problems
• You your age is over 40
• You have type 1 or type 2 diabetes
• You have a personal history of injury or trauma

It is also very common for children to be born with orbital problems, whether it be optics or positioning troubles such as crossed eyes.

• Crossed eyes also known as Strabismus
• Lazy eye also known as Amblyopia
• Droopy upper lids – Ptosis
