Comprehensive Eye Exams

What to Expect During an Eye Exam

At Comly Eye Care, our comprehensive eye exams go beyond just checking your vision. We take a thorough and personalized approach to assess every aspect of your eye health. Here's what you can expect:

• Review of Eye Health and Systemic Health
  Your eye doctor will begin by understanding your overall health and any past eye issues.

• Checking Eye Alignment and Ocular Motility
  We'll evaluate how your eyes work together, checking for any alignment issues or problems with eye movement.

• Pupil Function Assessment
  We'll observe how your pupils react to light, which can indicate neurological health.

• Visual Acuity Test
  We'll precisely measure your visual acuity (how well you can see) at different distances to determine if you need glasses or if your current prescription needs updating.

• Refraction
  A process to determine the power of lenses needed for glasses, if applicable.

• Intraocular Pressure Measurement (Tonometry)
  This test helps us screen for glaucoma by measuring the pressure inside your eye.

• Slit Lamp Examination
  Using a specialized microscope, we'll examine the front structures of your eye, including the cornea, iris, and lens, to detect any abnormalities, including dry eye

• Retinal Examination
  We'll use specialized instruments to view the back of your eye, including the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels, to check for signs of various eye diseases like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.

• Imaging
  This may include retinal photos, fundus autofluorescence, and/or optical coherence tomography (OCT) for detailed imaging and assessment of the retina.

• Discussion of Your Eye Health History and Lifestyle: We'll talk about your medical history, family history of eye conditions, and lifestyle factors that may impact your vision.
