The visual system is a delicate and complicated part of the human anatomy. All parts of the eye and many parts of the overall body affect your ability to see. In our comprehensive eye health and vision examination, the health of your eyes are evaluated from cornea to retina. You will find that your eye examination is a pleasant and interesting experience. Based on modern optometric techniques, the
examination consists not of a single test but a series of integrated tests. The examination is divided into four sections:
This series of tests is designed to determine whether your eyes are healthy and free of disease. A careful check will be made for certain diseases that manifest themselves in the eye. A number of objective tests are taken which allow us to observe and measure your eyes without your active participation. These tests also enable us to examine small children of preschool age. Here you will be actively participating. We will ask you a number of questions and will expect you to answer them as well as you can. Additional tests will be performed to assess the muscular balance of your eyes, how well your eyes work as a team, and how well your eyes focus. At the conclusion of the exam, we will explain the results of the tests and make recommendations for any needed preventative or remedial vision care.
