We’ve long maintained that the eyes are not only the window to your soul but also to your health. That’s why we recommend at least an annual eye exam—even if your eyesight is fine. Hidden conditions within the eye can be early precursors of other bodily illness and disease.

​Of course, blurry or cloudy vision by itself can be caused by a number of circumstances: an eye or head injury, typical vision loss, poor dietary habits, and more. So, Dr. Fruchtman took his time listening to the patient and performing a thorough eye exam. And he began to connect the dots.
