Comprehensive Eye Exams

We look at your eyes externally and internally for signs of disease, then test your vision in several ways:

• Visual acuity and refraction: testing with different lenses to determine whether glasses or contacts can improve your vision

• External exam: assessing the whites of your eyes, iris, pupil, eyelids, and eyelashes

• Internal exam: assessing the macula, optic nerve, and peripheral retina, using retinal imaging and dilation

• Visual function: testing depth perception, color vision, peripheral vision, pupil response, and screening for eye turns and lazy eye (eyes focusing, eye teaming, andeye moving ability)

• Ocular disease: screening for early signs and risk factors for glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and dry eye

If you'd like to wear contacts, let us know when you book. A contact lens evaluation is
separate testing and takes extra time

We look at your whole health, not just your eyes.

We'll talk about your general health and your family's, the medications you take, whether you have high blood pressure or diabetes, whether you smoke, and how much sun you get. Every one of those factors affects your eyes.

A vision screening isn't an eye exam.
A screening checks whether you can see clearly at a distance. It doesn’t provide any information about eye health, how your eyes work together, or how they focus up close.
