In-depth Vision Assessment

Our in-depth vision assessment ensures the best for your eyesight at The View Optometrists. Such evaluations are crucial for spotting early signs of eye issues, making vision adjustments, and gauging your overall well-being. Sometimes, the eyes can reveal symptoms indicative of other health issues.

How frequently should you get an in-depth vision assessment?

Our vision experts suggest undergoing this assessment annually or almost every two years. If you’re over 60 or have persistent health issues like diabetes or a family record of vision problems, annual check-ups are highly recommended.

What transpires during an in-depth vision assessment?

Your specific needs and medical background guide our approach. This assessment kicks off with a chat about your health background. We’ll delve into your personal and familial medical history, addressing any concerns you might have, like sudden vision alterations or recurring headaches.

The Assessment might encompass the following evaluations:

Vision Sharpness: This procedure evaluates the clarity of each eye. Both eyes are individually examined using an assortment of lenses against an alphabetic chart.
Refraction Evaluation: This determines if you need corrective measures, such as spectacles or contacts. It ascertains the perfect lens strength to offer you peak vision comfort.
Retina Check: Popularly termed ophthalmoscopy, it grants the vision expert a glimpse of your eye’s interior. After dilating your pupils with eye drops, the specialist inspects elements like the retina, optic disc, and associated blood vessels.
Glaucoma Review: This test gauges the threat or presence of Glaucoma by measuring eye pressure. Early detection is crucial, as unchecked glaucoma can lead to irreversible vision loss.

Post-assessment, compassionate vision experts will decode any prescribed measures or suggest additional follow-ups if needed.

For a practical session, bring your current eyewear and maintain a log of any anomalies you observe leading to your appointment.
