VIEWS FOR 20/20 by Dr. Mark Skowron and Dr. Michelle Skowron DO I NEED CORRECTIVE LENSES? In most cases, eyesight declines slowly, so you may not realize when it's time to get corrective lenses to improve your vision. Some changes in vision are considered normal (such as needing additional light to see clearly) and do not warrant the need for glasses or contact lenses. Although the symptoms may differ based on the reason for declining eyesight, common signs include trouble seeing and driving at night, blurred vision, double vision, squinting to see better, eyestrain (tired eyes), headaches after reading or using a computer, and objects in bright light that have the appearance of halos around them. A routine eye exam can tell you if corrective lenses will improve your vision. Eye care can help prevent many vision impairments. Important ways to care for your eyes include limiting UV exposure, meeting the recommended daily intake for Vitamin A, attentiveness to the signs of a developing vision problem, and more. If you experience a loss of vision or any form of discomfort to your eyes - have it checked out by an optometrist at SKOWRON EYE CARE as soon as possible. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision. P.S. Not being able to differentiate between colors such as black and blue does not indicate the need for corrective lenses. SKOWRON EYE CARE 370 N.
