Eye exams are important for everyone, from children to adults and seniors. Even if you have no symptoms, regular eye exams help maintain healthy vision and detect problems early.
Before your exam, our opticians may perform quick, non-invasive screenings, like autorefraction, eye pressure checks or visual fields tests.
An autorefractor measures how light changes as it enters your eyes to quickly estimate your vision prescription.

During a visual field test, you’ll look straight ahead while small lights flash in your side vision to check how well you can see in your peripheral view.
During retinal imaging, a special camera takes detailed pictures of the back of your eye without dilation. The process is quick, comfortable, and provides immediate results.
Our advanced imaging technology captures a detailed picture of your retina in seconds. It helps doctors detect eye conditions early, often before symptoms appear. Optomap imaging is typically done prior to your visit with the doctor.
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:
Assess how well your eyes change focus and move in unison to evaluate focus or binocular vision.
Your doctor uses eye charts and specialized tests to check visual sharpness, depth perception, color vision, side vision, eye muscle movement, and light sensitivity.
Your doctor tests how lenses focus light while you choose which option looks clearer, helping refine the prescription for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
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.

Eye drops dilate the pupils for your doctor to view your retina, optic nerve, and other internal eye structures.
The American Optometric Association recommends the following guidelines for people with no signs of eye or vision problems:
| 5 - 18 Years | Once a year |
| 19 - 60 Years | Every 1-2 years or as recommended |
| 60+ Years | Once a year |
*Our doctors of optometry provide eye exams for children aged 5 and older. For children younger than 5, please contact us for a referral.
If chronic conditions like diabetes or glaucoma run in your family, you may need more frequent checkups. Our optometrists provide eye exams for patients with diabetes and are qualified to treat eye problems associated with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
Health problems, including cancer, hypertension, diabetes, and more, can be detected during a routine eye exam. Your eye doctor can notice warning signs of systemic diseases by evaluating the blood vessel health in your retina. Many eye diseases don’t have obvious symptoms such as pain or vision changes, until a serious eye problem has developed.
You may not realize you’re missing perfect vision until you see it. For children, vision issues can affect learning, sports and social growth.
For most all ages, long hours on screens often bring digital eye strain, causing dryness, headaches, and blurred vision. Thus, eyesight can decline gradually.
Vision can deteriorate gradually, especially with age. Regular exams and prescription updates keep you seeing clearly and comfortably.
