What to Expect From An Eye Exam

There’s no need to worry; all of the tests we run through are designed to be comfortable while still providing fully comprehensive results for you and your optometrist. But what should you expect when you book your appointment?

Every eye exam begins with a quick chat about your health. During this conversation, your optometrist will ask you questions about your vision as well as your family history. We will also address any questions or concerns you may have, and tailor your exam if necessary to get the answers we need.
Next, we will test your visual acuity, visual strength, and look at the health of your eye. Your optometrist may use a variety of tools and tests to check these statuses, including a fundus camera, an optical coherence tomography test, a non-contact tonometry test, as well as a Goldmann tonometry test.

Depending on what your optometrist is checking for, these tests may or may not be used at the discretion of your optometrist.

After this fully comprehensive check, your optometrist can prescribe or recommend a variety of treatment options to mitigate and manage any potential issues you might have.

If your optometrist recommends glasses or contacts, the next and final step is to speak to our wonderful opticians. They will help you find the perfect frames to match your style and show you steps you can take to help maintain and protect your glasses. If you are interested in contact lenses, our opticians will show you how to properly insert and remove your contact lenses as well as how to properly care for your contact lenses.
