How Often Should You Visit an Eye Doctor?
Regular eye exams are vital for maintaining overall health, and at GOODLUUK, we care about your vision. Even if you don't need a new prescription, regular check-ups help detect issues early. Here's a guide on how often you should schedule your exams:
Recommended Exam Frequency

Start early. First exam at six months, again at three years, and before school starts. Early detection is key for addressing vision problems.
Teens and Adults
Every two years is recommended to track vision changes and update prescriptions as needed.
Seniors (60+)
Annual exams are crucial, as aging increases risks for various eye conditions.
