Why Routine Eye Exams Are Important

Routine eye exams are essential for maintaining optimal vision and identifying potential eye health issues before they become serious. Many eye conditions, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy, have no early symptoms. Regular exams help detect these problems early, which can prevent vision loss and allow for more effective treatment.

Key Benefits of Routine Eye Exams:

  • Early Detection of eye diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.

  • Updated Vision Prescription to ensure you’re seeing clearly, whether for reading, driving, or digital screen use.

What to Expect

Visual Acuity Test
This test measures how well you can see at various distances using an eye chart. It helps determine whether you need glasses or an updated prescription.

Refraction Test
This test helps determine the specific prescription for glasses or contacts by measuring how light enters your eye.

Slit-Lamp Exam
A slit lamp is used to examine the structures of your eyes, including the cornea, iris, lens, and retina. This helps detect common eye issues like cataracts or eye infections.

Glaucoma Screening
We use tonometry to measure the pressure inside your eyes, which can help detect glaucoma—a leading cause of blindness.

Dry Eye Screening
If you're experiencing discomfort or irritation, we assess your tears and check for signs of dry eye syndrome, a common condition affecting vision.
