Medical disclaimer
YourEye.org provides general eye health information and screening tools. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
Not medical advice
The content, checks, calculators, quizzes and videos on YourEye.org are for general information and education only. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Always seek the advice of an optometrist, ophthalmologist or other qualified health provider with any questions about your eyes or vision.
Screening checks are not eye exams
Our online checks are screening aids. Results depend on your screen, its settings, lighting, distance and other factors, and they can be wrong. A normal result does not mean your eyes are healthy. Many serious eye diseases, including glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, have no early symptoms and can only be found with a comprehensive eye exam.
Emergencies
If you have sudden vision loss, flashes of light, a sudden increase in floaters, a curtain or shadow over your vision, severe eye pain, a chemical in your eye or an eye injury, seek emergency care immediately. Do not use this website or the matching service for emergencies.
No doctor-patient relationship
Using YourEye.org, including the matching service, does not create a doctor-patient relationship with YourEye.org. Providers you are matched with are independent and solely responsible for the care they provide. We do not endorse or guarantee any provider, product or procedure.
Accuracy
We work to keep information accurate and current, but medical knowledge changes. We make no warranty that the information is complete, current or error-free. Never disregard professional advice or delay seeking it because of something you read here.
