On Oct. 24th, Dr. Amy Harper, spoke to our club about the importance of regular and thorough eye exams. Her specialty is pediatric optometry, where infants and young children can be diagnosed early. Sometimes amblyopia (lazy eye) and others can be misdiagnosed as learning disabilities, and a simple eye exam would have fixed the problem. Presbyopia can be a problem for adults around the age of 40. Dr. Harper also mentioned that 80% of all medical problems can be seen or diagnosed in a proper eye exam.
