Who needs regular eye examinations?

1. Diabetic patients

Patients with diabetes who have not yet found retinopathy should have an examination once a year, and if retinopathy is found, the examination frequency should be shortened.

2. Patients with high myopia

Myopic patients (myopia ≥ 600 degrees) should have their fundus examined at least once a year. A higher degree means a longer eye axis and a greater risk of fundus lesions, especially peripheral retinal degeneration, which may lead to retinal detachment.

3. Family history of glaucoma

There is a very obvious genetic tendency for glaucoma, and the fundus should be examined once a year after the age of 40.

4. Hypertension patients

Hypertension can easily lead to retinopathy, so the fundus should be checked once a year. If vision loss or visual distortion occurs, be vigilant and get checked in time.
