Online Eye Exam & Telehealth

Can you do a vision exam online?

Though Telehealth eye exam appointments are virtual, the equipment in our optometry offices is needed to perform a thorough eye exam. You will still need to go to your nearest Wisconsin Vision location for a Telehealth eye exam.

How does a Telehealth eye exam work?

A comprehensive eye exam is conducted with an on-screen technician and/or Optometrist through a video call to get you an accurate eyeglass prescription in less than 30 minutes. Whether you meet a technician or Optometrist over video chat will depend on who is at your Wisconsin Vision store at the time of your eye exam appointment. Remember, Telehealth appointments are in-store.

What is a Telehealth eye exam?

Telehealth is a new, innovative way to conduct comprehensive eye exams with an on-screen licensed Optometrist through a video call. Digital eye exams make it easy for you to schedule an appointment at your convenience, because you don’t need to depend on your Optometrist to be at the office with you at the time of your appointment.

Who is eligible for Telehealth?

Anyone can schedule a Telehealth eye exam at Wisconsin Vision, regardless of insurance coverage.

Are Telehealth eye exams more expensive?

No. Since the Optometrist doesn’t have to be on-site for exams, there is no additional cost to having them available throughout the day.

Do insurance companies cover Telehealth appointments?

Yes, most insurance companies will cover a Telehealth eye exam because it helps to detect eye disease and reduces the cost of in-person comprehensive exams.

Are Telehealth exam results as accurate as in-person exams?

Advancements in technology help improve the efficiency of optometric tools and replicate the on-site, in-person eye exam with an on-screen Optometrist.

How is an eye exam with an out-of-office Optometrist different from my usual annual exam?

You can expect the same treatment as a usual exam when you schedule a Telehealth eye exam at Wisconsin Vision. The only difference is that you will be receiving care from an on-screen Optometrist through a high definition video conference. Most of the process will be the same and in-store staff will be there to help you through the process.

What tests would be missing as compared to a traditional in-person eye exam?

None. Telehealth digital exams offer the same comprehensive exam that standard in-person exams offer.

What happens if the Optometrist observes a health condition in my eye?

If a condition is found that we cannot treat, the Optometrist will refer you to a specialist. Remember, regular eye exams are the best way to identify and properly address any health conditions with your eyes.
