WHAT Happens during an eye exam?
Your overall health, previous visits, and current symptoms will determine the specific tests included in your next eye exam. In general, a comprehensive adult eye exam may include:
PATIENT HISTORY
This includes any vision symptoms, eye injuries, medications, or family history of diseases like diabetes or hypertension. Your doctor may also ask about your workplace and routines to screen for environmental conditions affecting your eyes.
VISION TESTS
Eye charts are used to measure visual acuity at near and far distances. Other tests measure depth perception, color vision, peripheral vision, eye muscle function, and how pupils respond to light.
REFRACTION
While you look through a series of different lenses, your eye doctor measures how the lenses focus light. You participate by saying which one of two options gives you clearer vision. This lets your eye doctor refine the lens power you need to properly correct vision problems including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
KERATOMETRY
A circle of light is focused on the cornea (the clear outer part of your eye) and its reflection is measured. This lets your optometrist measure the outer contour to measure astigmatism and get the right fit for contact lenses.
TONOMETRY
Tonometry is a test to measure your eye pressure. Eyes are continually producing clear fluid that flows into your eyes and drains out. If there’s a problem with drainage, pressure can build up and damage the optic nerve (causing glaucoma). In this test, an instrument releases a small puff of air as a sensor measures the corresponding indentation on the eye’s surface.
EYE MOVEMENT TESTS
Your eye doctor may perform tests to assess how well your eyes are able to change focus and move/work in unison (eye teaming). Evaluating how your eyes move can let your optometrist identify problems compromising your focus or binocular vision.
DILATION
Eye drops are used to dilate the pupils, which gives your doctor a better view of your retina, optic nerve, and other internal eye structures. Optomap® dilation-free retinal imaging allows your doctor to conduct a comprehensive retinal exam with no dilating drops needed (not available at all locations*).
CONTACT LENS EXAMS
If you wear or want to start wearing contact lenses, you’ll need a contact lens exam and fitting as well as a standard eye exam. A contact lens exam includes special tests to measure your pupil and iris, map your cornea, and evaluate your tear film. Contact lens wearers also have their eyes checked for any damage or changes contact lens use may have caused.
Optomap® Eye Exams
*Eye exams with Optomap® retinal imaging are available at the following locations: Elm Grove, Milwaukee (Layton Ave), Franklin, Greenfield, Pewaukee, Racine (Douglas Ave), Janesville, Madison (Odana Ave), and Appleton.
