A comprehensive adult eye and vision examination may include, but is not limited to, the following tests. Individual patient signs and symptoms, along with the professional judgment of the doctor, may significantly influence the testing done.

• Patient History--Detailed questions to determine symptoms, medications, general health and family history.

• Visual Acuity--Measurements to see how clearly each eye is seeing.

• Preliminary Tests--Testing may include visual function and eye health tests such as peripheral or side vision, depth perception, eye muscle movements and pupil responses to light.

• Refraction--Measurements of the appropriate lens power to compensate for any refractive error. (Nearsightedness, farsightedness & astigmatism)

• Eye Focusing, Eye Teaming, and Eye Movement Testing--Assessment of accommodation, ocular motility and binocular vision to determine how well the eyes work together.

• Eye Health Evaluation--Tonometry measures eye pressure for glaucoma. The external eye is evaluated with a microscope. The internal eye evaluation may include a dilated pupil for a better view.

In our offices, we can treat or monitor multiple eye conditions. The most commonly treated or monitored are Age-Related Macular Degeneration, Glaucoma, Dry Eye Disease, and Diabetic Eye Disease. We have many instruments and tools that allow us to give you the best care.

This is why monitoring your eye health with imagery and scans is so important:

With our advanced Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) imaging, we can monitor the health of the Macula, Retina, and Optic Nerve. It is routine for us to perform this imagery at all comprehensive eye examinations for individuals over the age of 65 or those with certain health issues.

We use our Comprehensive Ultra-Widefield Retinal Camera (Clarus) to retrieve a photo of the back of the eye. This is the only part of the body that allows us to get up close and personal with the veins and arteries. This device allows us to monitor for Hypertension issues, Diabetic eye disease, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (wet and dry), Birthmarks/unusual spots of pigment, or even Retinal detachments. This instrument is changing the game for monitoring issues that may not be seen otherwise.

Using our AdaptDx Pro headset allows our team to monitor how quickly your eyes adjust from lightness to darkness. This is important when monitoring Age-related Macular Degeneration, commonly referred to as AMD. Pairing the Dark Adaptation test with the scans received from our advanced OCT imaging and our Clarus, allows our doctor to examine the big picture and determine the severity of the disease. If you are interested feel free to ask our staff questions!

Lastly, we use our Humphrey Field Analyzer 3 to test the field of vision that is affected by certain medications, or diseases. Most commonly, we use this technology to monitor vision loss that is associated with Glaucoma or high-risk medications. Using this device, our advanced OCT imaging, and Clarus, we can determine the severity of the Glaucoma and set up a treatment plan.
