Most of us check our phones a hundred times a day and our eyes once in a few years.
Yet many serious eye conditions, from glaucoma to diabetic retinopathy, show no symptoms until the damage is done.
A comprehensive eye check is far more than a new spectacle number. It is a full assessment of eye pressure, the retina, the optic nerve and overall eye health.
Adults should get a thorough check at least once a year, and sooner if you have diabetes or a family history of eye disease. Clear vision is worth one appointment a year.
