there comes a time as we age that new glasses won't help and you may have cataracts. VA did both my eyes one month a part and it was great. Bit they should tell you that even after cataracts removal which they correct for distance, with new lenses and give you reading glasses, your distance vision can change in one or both eyes again. Then they gave new glasses to bring you back to 20/20. good video

How often can you get an eye exam and new lenses or frames?

[@williamechevarria4616]

Every years

[@HurricaneTroy]

Once a year

[@prestigeveteranmedical]

That is a great question. I am not 100% sure but I think annually

[@skcm2006]

My VA clinic told me every two years…. They were horrible

[@hillbillyheaven9508]

New glasses every 2 years ,eye exam every year ,eye Dr. said unless you have a special issue

I applied for vision loss. Went to boot camp with 20/20. Came back from Desert Storm needing and got Glasses. Was denied twice. Any thoughts? All in service records

[@prestigeveteranmedical]

So sorry to hear this sir. Alot of times there is natural reason for vision decline over the years. I am not to sure about yours of course but I hope you can get it straightened out

[@fernandodasilva6529]

Thank you for what you do.

Had a head Injury in the military they required surgery had a craniotomy now I’m dealing with glaucoma. They said the head injury did not cause the glaucoma because I had a exam at 1986.

I guess I'm lucky...I get an exam every two years with new glasses. Talk with your VA advocate if you have concerns. 😊

[@prestigeveteranmedical]

Thank you for the feedback my friend

[@skcm2006]

I got my glasses in the mail and they were so twisted and ill fitting. I called them and they said to go to a local eye doctor t o get them adjusted. Absolutely horrible

I am so sorry to hear this. Thank you for watching

Seeing a common thread in comments I'll respond generically. VA is broken. When your vision is involved get it done , VA or otherwise. Medicare Medicaid County Health or get a job and pay for it. You have no sense like sight.
