Now that the dry autumn has arrived, dry eye syndrome is creeping back in and bothering me again.
It’s a season I really love, but the snow is truly painful.
It seems much better than before, though... but I still feel the dryness.
The dry season is troublesome.

- 01CommentsYes, it is worth getting your eyes checked if your vision remains the same but your eyes get tired easily. While it could simply be fatigue caused by overuse, there may also be underlying causes that are not easily visible on an eye chart, such as dry eyes, reduced focusing ability, or early signs of presbyopia. In particular, if you experience slow focus, eye strain, or even headaches after looking at close text for a long time, it is advisable to have it checked by an ophthalmologist. For those in their 40s or older, these symptoms may appear first as presbyopia begins to set in. If it were me, I would start by checking not only your vision but also your refraction test, tear film, and dry eye status. It is best to seek medical attention as soon as possible if the condition has suddenly worsened, if only one eye feels particularly uncomfortable, or if it is accompanied by symptoms such as blurred vision, double vision, pain, or flashes of light.545026.09.28
- 02CommentsYes, even if your vision isn't blurry, if you repeatedly feel that your focus is slow to set, it is worth getting an eye exam at an ophthalmologist. Especially for those over 40, **presbyopia (decreased accommodative power)**, which causes a delay in focusing when shifting from close objects to distant ones, is one of the common causes. For example, if your vision is briefly blurry before settling when you look at a TV or a distant object after reading a book or using your phone, it is likely related to presbyopia. However, if the symptoms are particularly severe in only one eye, appeared suddenly, or are accompanied by double vision, a feeling of obstructed vision, eye pain, severe headaches, flashes of light, or floaters, it is best not to dismiss it as simple presbyopia and seek medical attention promptly. If it were me, I would go beyond just a vision test and have a comprehensive checkup that includes refraction, intraocular pressure, and fundus examination. This is especially true if the symptoms have increased noticeably recently.1885026.09.28
- 03CommentsThere are cases where X-rays are recommended even if there is no visible pain or cavities. This is because conditions around the tooth roots, the state of the alveolar bone, and issues between teeth, which are difficult to check from the outside, can be seen more clearly in radiographic images. We do not take X-rays for everyone without symptoms every time. After conducting an oral examination, we take X-rays only when necessary, based on a comprehensive assessment of age, risk of cavities and gum disease, past treatment history, and previous images. If gum disease is suspected, X-rays can be helpful in checking the extent of bone loss supporting the teeth. If your dentist suggests a checkup even though your teeth look fine on the outside, you should understand that they are doing so because the visible condition of your teeth may differ from the actual condition of the alveolar bone and roots.634126.09.21
