What to Expect at An Eye Exam

Whether you need a new prescription or just a check-up, we are here to help. Here's what you can expect at your next eye exam at our Middletown or New Castle clinics.

Tests at An Eye Exam

During an eye exam, our optometrists will conduct a series of tests to assess your vision and the health of your eyes. These tests may include:

• A visual acuity test will measure how clearly you see at different distances.
• The eye muscle test assesses the movement and coordination of your eye muscles.
• Pupil dilation will allow our optometrist to get a better view of the back of your eye.
• The visual field tests measure your peripheral (side) vision.
• Glaucoma testing is measuring the pressure of your eyes using a tonometer.

If you need a new prescription, our optometrist will work with you to find the right one for your needs. We will discuss your vision goals and make sure you are comfortable with your new prescription before you leave. If you are also considering LASIK surgery, we can evaluate your eyes to see if you're a good candidate.

Schedule A Follow-Up Appointment

If you have any concerns about your eyes or vision, we recommend scheduling a follow-up appointment. This gives us a chance to check on your progress and make sure everything is going well.

Importance of Routine Eye Exams

Routine eye exams are important for everyone, even if you don't wear glasses or contact lenses. These exams can detect vision problems, eye diseases, and other health conditions. Early detection and treatment of these conditions are essential for maintaining your vision and overall health.
