Frequently Asked Questions
The information here is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Consult a licensed healthcare provider about your specific situation.
How often should I get an eye exam?
Adults aged 20-64 should have an eye exam every 2 years. Children, seniors (65+), and people with diabetes or a family history of eye disease should go annually. Many eye conditions have no symptoms in early stages.
How much does an eye exam cost in Kentucky?
A comprehensive eye exam typically costs $75-$150. Many provinces cover eye exams for children and seniors through provincial health plans. Check your province's coverage — you may not need to pay anything.
What's the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist?
Optometrists are primary eye care providers who do eye exams, prescribe glasses and contacts, and diagnose/treat many eye conditions. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who perform eye surgery and treat complex eye diseases. Your optometrist will refer you to an ophthalmologist if needed.
Are eye exams covered by provincial health insurance?
Coverage varies by province. Ontario covers annual exams for those under 20 and 65+. BC covers exams for children and seniors. Alberta covers annual exams for all ages. Quebec covers exams for those under 18 and 65+. Check your province's specific coverage.
Can an optometrist detect health problems beyond eye issues?
Yes! Eye exams can reveal early signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, autoimmune diseases, and even some cancers. Your optometrist examines blood vessels and nerve tissue that can indicate systemic health conditions.
