Recommended Eye Exam Schedule

Early detection of vision problems can mean the all the difference in the world - the sighted world versus the world of darkness. Current recommendations for comprehensive eye examination are:
  • All newborns should have their first eye exam by the pediatrician before leaving the hospital.
  • Regular screenings should be performed for children at the pediatric visits and it is recommended that children be seen by an ophthalmologist at least once by age 3 years old or any time that an abnormality is discovered on screening.
  • Ages 5 - 60: at 1 - 2 year intervals unless symptomatic.
  • Ages over 60: annually, even if not symptomatic.
  • Intervals can be much shorter in diseases such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or acute infections, or if any symptoms exist.
