In addition, people in their forties should opt for complete eye exams to detect potential diseases or vision changes early. For seniors aged sixty-five or older, it is advisable to schedule eye exams annually or biennially to screen for age-related eye diseases such as cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and glaucoma.
