Growing old is a privilege.

But when it comes to eye health, aging can bring on several ocular conditions and diseases like glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, cataracts and diabetic retinopathy.

Vision impairment decreases one's ability to perform activities of daily living and increases the risk for depression.

The eye doctors at Bay Hill Eye Care can help keep your vision clear and comfortable with regular eye exams, early detection and personalized care.


Preserve Your Eyesight With Bay Hill Eye Care

Whether you need reading glasses, bifocals, post-cataract surgery care, or eye disease co-management, we've got you covered! 

At Bay Hill Eye Care in Orlando, we believe that prevention is the best medicine. That’s why annual eye exams are so important for seniors. Detecting eye conditions early on can help prevent or delay vision loss, keeping your vision clearer for longer. Some serious eye conditions don’t present noticeable symptoms until vision loss has occurred. Fortunately, these can be detected in their early stages by your eye care professional during your eye exam. 

If an eye disease is diagnosed, we’ll create a custom treatment plan and monitor your condition closely to ensure the best outcome. 

Contact Bay Hill Eye Care today to schedule your eye exam!


Senior Vision FAQs

Can presbyopia be corrected?

Presbyopia, age-related farsightedness, affects your eyes’ ability to focus on near objects. You may become aware of presbyopia once you begin holding books and newspapers at arm’s length to be able to read them. This condition is a natural part of the aging process and affects virtually all adults in their 40s. Our eye doctors will diagnose and help correct your presbyopia so you can see clearly again. They'll provide you with corrective glasses and/or contact lenses, such as monovision and multifcoals.

What are the most common vision problems in the elderly?

The most common causes of vision loss among the elderly are age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts and diabetic retinopathy. 

  • Age-related macular degeneration is characterized by the loss of central vision. 
  • Glaucoma results in visual field loss.
  • Cataracts cause blurred vision and faded colors among the elderly.
  • Diabetic retinopathy is characterized by blurred vision and floaters, among other symptoms. 
  • Other conditions include dry or watery eyes and floaters. 

Because many of these conditions may initially be asymptomatic, it's critical that elderly patients undergo routine eye exams. The earlier these conditions are detected, the better the treatment outcome. 

Can macular degeneration be prevented?

Although there’s no sure-fire method for preventing eye disease, certain lifestyle habits can put the odds in your favor. To help ensure healthy vision for a lifetime, wear high-quality sunglasses whenever outdoors, quit smoking if you do, eat eye-healthy foods, and ask your optometrist about taking AREDS supplements. Most importantly, regular visits with your eye doctor are crucial to keeping your vision sharp throughout your golden years.

I am from out of town and was attending a local convention when I sustained a significant injury to ... my eye. BayHill Eye Care went above and beyond the call of duty! I was seen promptly on an emergency basis and received the best of care. Dr. Wendy Bui is exceptional and took her time with the diagnosis, examination, treatment and follow up care. She is professional and knowledgeable, and, as a RN, I was very impressed.

I recently had a new patient visit at this office and have absolutely no complaints. I had to resche... dule a few times and they were understanding each time. Once I finally made it to the appointment, the staff was friendly from beginning to end. The woman at the front desk was nice and helped get me checked in. The assistant that saw me for my appointment was also very friendly, she made me feel comfortable even though I was a little nervous for some reason. The doctor was very kind, and straightforward but not in a condescending way at all. When it came time to look at glasses, the man who helped me was very knowledgeable and friendly as well. He did not pressure me to buy anything or spend more, which I’ve experienced elsewhere. I’m happy to have found a new office and will be bringing my family with me. Thank you everyone!
