Ophthalmologists: Uniquely Qualified to Preserve Eye Health

Thanks to their medical training, ophthalmologists are uniquely qualified to assess a person's eye health and create a plan for maintaining healthy vision throughout life. That's why Andrew G. Iwach, MD, shares the recommendation of a baseline eye disease screening for everyone by age 40 — it ensures that people are being evaluated at a critical time by a trained physician.

Dr. Iwach is an ophthalmologist — an eye medical doctor and surgeon — and a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
