Eye Care for Every Age

Good vision is a cornerstone of overall well-being, and at Mt. Airy Medical Eye Center in Mount Airy, we understand the importance of caring for the eyes of your entire family. Our approach is not just about prescribing glasses or contacts; it's about comprehensive care that ensures the long-term health of your eyes.

Children's Eye Health: Laying the Foundation for Lifelong Learning

For children, clear vision is more than just seeing well; it's about laying the groundwork for successful learning and activity participation. Our team focuses on early detection and treatment of common childhood eye conditions like amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (crossed eyes). Treating these conditions early on can prevent complications later in life, making regular eye exams essential to your child's healthcare routine.

Whether or not your child wears glasses, we recommend yearly eye exams to ensure their vision develops normally throughout the school years.

The Importance of Eye Care for Adults

Adults, especially those over 40, might think their vision is "fixed" and skip eye exams if their prescription hasn't changed. However, regular eye exams are crucial for early detection of age-related eye conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration, particularly for those with health conditions like diabetes. These visits are about maintaining your current vision and protecting your eyesight in the future.
