Comprehensive Eye Exams

As part of a comprehensive eye examination, our optometrists will assess your eye health and every aspect of your vision. In addition to determining your proper eyeglass or contact lens prescription, we will screen for eye diseases that can lead to vision loss, as well as check for any other problems that may affect eye health. Since your eyes can be an indicator of your overall health, we will also look for any warning signs of underlying medical conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes. Many common ocular diseases and vision conditions may have no symptoms, especially at the early stages. During our comprehensive exams, we screen for glaucoma, inspect the surface of your eye,  and examine the back of the eye and retina for signs of any abnormalities. By identifying problems before they impact your vision, early treatment will greatly improve the success rate of preventing future vision loss. Pediatric eye examinations are particularly important, as they may detect a vision condition that could cause learning delays or difficulties in school.
