Taking care of your eyes is incredibly important when it comes maintaining your overall wellbeing. For patients with a known vision impairment or other deficiency, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism, it is important that you have your eyes checked regularly. Your vision can change without you noticing and some vision changes may be a sign of other more serious eye conditions. Our eye care team here at Metropolitan Optical can provide you with the Washington D.C. eye exams you need to maintain your visual acuity and keep your eyes healthy.

There are plenty of advantages to having your eyes checked via an annual eye exam, especially if you already have an eyeglass or contact lens prescription. Your visual acquitted can often change without you really noticing. Sometimes your vision can change so gradually over time that it becomes difficult to notice the change until it becomes so drastic that you cannot see well at all. Signs of an out of date vision prescription include increased eye strain, increased squinting, persistent headaches, difficulty focusing prevent dizziness. Having your eyes checked regularly here at Metropolitan Optical can help make sure that you always see your best. Even if your prescription changes very little in the span of a year, the slightest change in lens magnification can mean a whole world of clarity and really make a difference. Even if you have lived most of your life with perfect vision, your visual acuity can still decline later in life. Aging adults can frequently experience a gradual need for corrective lenses after the age of 40 due to their corneas losing shape as they get older, typically resulting in farsightedness. This is why many adults find they need reading glasses later in life. Making sure that your visual acuity is always at 20/20 is easy with our Washington D.C. eye exams.

In addition to providing you with the tests you need to make sure that your prescription is up to date, we here at Metropolitan Optical can walk you through our selection of contact lenses and eyeglass frames as well. Make sure that you look great and see great by visiting us here at our optical store in Washington DC.

All good eye care begins with a yearly eye exam. Just call us and schedule an appointment. This will allow us to determine if you need eyeglasses or contact lenses or if you need to update your current prescription. Equally important, your eyes will be checked for any signs of the most common eye diseases. Your eyes and your vision change with time. How you saw last year might be quite different than how you see now. And because most eye diseases are without symptoms to alert you to their presence in early stages, it is vital to be examined at our Washington D.C. optical store to detect any potential concerns early when they’re more easily treatable. And of course, if you do have any symptoms then you should call us right away for an appointment and not wait for a year to pass. Anything that could be considered unusual, from eye discharge to blurred vision; from eye strain related headaches to loss of vision at any level should always be addressed.

For those who do wear eyeglasses, we have a spectacular array of designer frames to choose from. Ray Ban, Coach, Swissflex, Gucci, Kawasaki, and Modo are a sampling of the names you will recognize. Don’t forget our sunglasses too. They come in handy year round and our Washington D.C. optical store is up on the latest lens technology, including progressive lenses to help you see better at all distances. Contact lenses, from rigid to soft are available. And our dedication to bringing you the most advanced products is evident in 1 Day Acuvue TrueEye™ Brand lenses as well as Bausch & lomb PureVision Multi-focal lenses.
