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.

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

At Bella Optical in Northwest Side, 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.

I had an appt roughly 12 days ago, and I must say the staff is amazing. They were all so helpful as... I have never worn glasses before, and the exam that let me see the interior of my eye was really cool. The doctor was very pleasant and patient with me and answered all of my questions in detail. The entire staff is wonderful, and now I am just waiting for my glasses to come in. The only hiccup is that I left 2 messages inquiring as to when my glasses would possibly arrive or if they had any update and I Never received a call back, other than that if you go anywhere else you are making a mistake trust me. I love it there.

Late review. My appointment was in July 2022. Honestly, I only went for an exam, but their profess... ionalism and customer service was A+. There was absolutely no way that I’d take my prescription somewhere else. While I may not remember everyone’s names, I do remember that they all paid attention to detail, they listened, and provided a lot of feedback to me. Every question I had was answered. I absolutely love my glasses. They match my personality. Lol. Also, the young lady who helped me pick out my glasses was so knowledgeable. So knowledgeable as if she made the glasses. I did my own research about the company and everything she stated was accurate. They even gave me some Godiva chocolates with my purchase. Everything was so thoroughly explained that I didn’t even have questions. My glasses arrived as scheduled. The service that they provided was so great that I wanted to speak to the manager. This place has the kind of employees that anyone would want to hire. I definitely would. Also, when I’ve called about a vision concern, they took the time to listen and provided feedback on the next steps. Thank you and I’ll see you again soon!

I recently purchased a new pair of glasses and had a great experience purchasing at Bella Optical. A... nalyze Camacho gives you a top notch experience in getting fitted, confirming your the clarity of your vision and making sure you are comfortable with your new pair of glasses. What most stood out is her knowledge of different brands they offer and taking the time to listen to what is most important to her customer. If you’re looking for more than just average service, and want good personal service on your next purchase of glasses , go by and check out Analyce at Bella Optical. Thanks again, Joel G.

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.
