Q:

Does my skin cancer risk increase as I get older?

A:

With most cancers, you have a higher chance of developing them as you age. With skin cancer, this is not necessarily the case. With melanoma skin cancers, they can develop at any age, and we typically see them in people from their teenage years well into their later life. You can ask your doctor if you have questions about your personal risk for skin cancer.

Q:

Diabetes And The Importance Of Regular Eye Exams

A:

Only your eye doctor can look inside that eye and tell you that you’re having a problem. Whether it is by looking, or by doing tests such as optical optical coherence tomography or photographs, the doctor needs to look inside your eyes to be able to tell if you have a problem. You won’t feel any pain, you may not experience any vision loss, but you may even be on the verge of having serious vision problems and not know it.
