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.
How Often Do I Need My Eyes Checked?
The American Optometric Association recommends the following guidelines for people with no signs of eye or vision problems:
| Age | Eye exam frequency |
| 6 - 24MONTHS | First exam at 6 months* |
| 2 - 5YEARS | At age 3, and again before starting 5k |
| 6 - 18YEARS | Once a year |
| 19 - 60YEARS | Every 1-2 years or as recommended by doctor |
| 60+YEARS | Once a year |
*For children younger than 3, please contact us for a referral
If any of the following are true, please schedule an eye exam right away:
- Your last eye exam was over 2 years ago
- You use computers, phones or other digital screens for extended periods of time
- You occasionally experience headaches that blur your vision
- You experience an increase in ‘floaters,’ spots or bright flashes

Back to school eye exams in Grafton
State law requires all Wisconsin schools to request children have a comprehensive eye exam from an optometrist or ophthalmologist before starting kindergarten. The same law also requires optometrists and doctors to work to reduce or waive the cost of childhood eye exams for parents who might have difficulty paying.

Eye exams for seniors
Older adults have increased risk of vision loss and some eye diseases. Routine eye exams help detect problems early so they can be treated sooner. Our optometrists provide affordable eye exams for seniors and take Medicare Part B for vision care.
Eye exam insurance coverage
Wisconsin Vision in Grafton accepts most vision plans including VSP. Your vision insurance covers routine eye exams and may pay for part of your eyeglasses or contact lenses if needed. Flexible spending accounts can be used to pay for eye exams and eyewear.
If you have a medical condition affecting your eye health (such as pink eye, glaucoma or macular degeneration) your medical insurance may also be billed. We’re happy to do an insurance check and explain your benefits.

Eye Exam Fequently Asked Questions
Are the standard eye exams from Wisconsin Vision cheap?
We offer affordable comprehensive eye exams for the whole family. We are always accepting new patients including children, adults, and patients with special needs. Contact the Grafton location for more specific eye exam pricing details.
Does the Grafton location accept walk-ins?
Walk-ins are subject to availability around scheduled appointments. To ensure you meet with an eye doctor the same day you come in, please schedule an appointment online or contact our store today.
Is a vision screening by a pediatrician or at school the same as one done at Wisconsin Vision?
No, these are not the same as the comprehensive eye exams performed by an optometrist at Wisconsin Vision. These will not detect eye problems or provide treatment solutions since they are not thorough enough. Our pediatric eye exams are performed by licensed optometrists, not technicians. Contact us today to schedule your child’s eye exam, or make an appointment online.
What should I have prepared to bring to my child’s first eye exam?
You will be asked about your child’s medical history before the first eye exam. You will need to provide the eye doctor with the following information: medications, medical conditions, allergies, family medical history and your child’s primary care physician. Bring your child’s glasses or contact lenses with you to the appointment if they wear them already.
Does Wisconsin Vision’s Grafton location offer Telehealth services?
We are working on implementing Telehealth capabilities at all our Wisconsin Vision locations. Unfortunately, our Grafton location does not yet offer Telehealth eye exams.
