When an Ophthalmologist or Optometrist examines your eyes, he or she is doing more than checking to see if you need glasses. During a complete eye exam your doctor will not only determine if you need glasses or contacts but will also check your eyes for common eye diseases, make sure your eyes are working together and evaluate your eyes as an indicator of your overall health. Examinations are provided by a combination of the doctor and paraoptometric assistants. We use the latest in computer and laser instruments to ensure the best results. The examination will vary from patient to patient depending on the health of the individual and their visual needs. Typically, it may include -
- Medical History
- Measurement of visual activity
- Pupil dilation
- Intraocular pressure
- Digital Retinal Photography
- Visual field test
- Diagnosis prescription
