πŸ‘ What is it?

A refraction test measures how light bends as it enters your eye, helping to determine if you have:

βœ… Nearsightedness (Myopia)
βœ… Farsightedness (Hyperopia)
βœ… Astigmatism
βœ… Presbyopia

πŸ”Ž How does it work?
Your doctor will show you a series of lens options while you look at an eye chart, asking: β€œWhich is clearer, 1 or 2?” πŸ€“

πŸ“Œ Why is it important?
A refraction test ensures you get the sharpest, clearest vision possibleβ€”whether you need glasses, contacts, or even considering LASIK! πŸ‘“βœ¨

Most Commonly Asked Question: Can you use your eyeglass prescription to buy contact lenses?

Short answer: No! πŸ›‘ Eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions are different. Contact lenses need specific measurements for a proper fit, like base curve and diameter. Always get a separate contact lens fitting from your eye doctor for safe and comfortable wear. πŸ‘οΈβœ¨

Ever wonder what’s the difference between a comprehensive eye exam and a dilated eye exam?

A comprehensive exam covers your overall eye health and vision. It includes checking your glasses or contact lens prescription, testing eye muscle function, measuring eye pressure (for glaucoma), and examining the front of the eye.

A dilated eye exam is more focused. Special drops widen your pupils, giving your doctor a better view of the retina and optic nerve to detect conditions like diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, or optic nerve damage.

πŸ‘οΈβœ¨ Stay on top of your eye healthβ€”book your appointment today at Vega Retina. Your vision matters. 🌟
