Comprehensive Eye Exams At The Contact Lens Centers
Regular eye exams are the cornerstone of maintaining optimal eye health and vision clarity. At The Contact Lens Centers, our comprehensive eye exams go beyond just updating your prescription for glasses or contact lenses—they are a vital part of preventative healthcare.
We assess not only your vision but also your eyes' overall health, detecting early signs of conditions that could impact your quality of life.
What to Expect During a Comprehensive Eye Exam
Our comprehensive eye exams are thorough, patient-focused, and designed to meet your individual needs. During your visit, we perform a series of tests and evaluations, including:
Visual Acuity Test: Measures how well you can see at various distances.
Refraction Assessment: Determines your precise prescription for glasses or contact lenses.
Eye Health Evaluation: A detailed examination of your eye’s internal and external structures using advanced diagnostic tools.
Binocular Vision Testing: Ensures your eyes are working together seamlessly.
Screening for Eye Diseases: Detects early signs of conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
We utilize state-of-the-art technology to ensure the most accurate diagnosis and effective treatment recommendations.
Why Are Regular Eye Exams Important?
A comprehensive eye exam does more than address your vision—it serves as a window into your overall health. During an exam, we can detect systemic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol, often before symptoms appear.
The American Optometric Association recommends regular eye exams for individuals of all ages, even those without noticeable vision problems. Here's the suggested frequency based on age and risk factors:
- Children: First exam at 6 months, then at age 3, and before starting school. Follow-up exams every 1–2 years.
- Adults aged 18–39: Every 2–4 years.
- Adults aged 40–64: Every 1–3 years.
- Adults aged 65+: Annually or as recommended.
If you have conditions like diabetes, a family history of eye diseases, or work in environments that strain your eyes, more frequent exams may be necessary.
