Comprehensive Healthy Eye Exams in Mt Vernon, OH

Your eyes are key components to your overall health – as your eye health communicates a lot about your overall, general health.

Without a comprehensive eye exam from a Doctor of Optometry, eye problems and vision-threatening diseases can develop without warning and steal your vision needlessly.

With an annual eye exam, your vision will be monitored, a prescription or treatment can be given when necessary, and your overall quality of life can improve. Best of all, vision testing and eye examinations are quick and painless. Easily schedule an eye doctor appointment today.

“The quality of care and concern for myself as a patient by the doctor and the testing assistant was outstanding. The office staff is helpful and friendly! My appointment ran late due to several emergencies that morning, but I was still able to keep to my schedule for that day.”
★★★★★ Jerrie Y.

What to Expect During a Comprehensive Eye Exam

During a healthy eye exam, our doctors’ number one goal is to listen. Do you have any concerns? Do you have any questions? Throughout the exam, the doctor will be educating you on what he or she is doing and why, so that you can be more informed and better able to help in the decision making process should they uncover a concern or vision issue.

Here is a quick look at what you and the eye doctor may be discussing during vision testing and the comprehensive eye exam:

Your medical history
External eye health related to lids, lashes and tears
Internal eye health related to retina, macula, iris and other parts of the eye
Refraction test results to determine what power prescription you’ll need for glasses or contacts
Eye focus tests for reading and sustained near work
Eye pressure test results to determine if you have or are at risk for glaucoma
Eye muscle control and coordination studies related to lazy eye and other conditions

Over the course of the exam, your eye doctor will also be on the lookout for a number of eye diseases and conditions, including but not limited to:

Allergies
Autoimmune
Blood Pressure
Diabetes
Dry eye
Foreign Bodies

Glaucoma
Macular Degeneration
Multiple Sclerosis
Retinal Detachments
Tumors

What to Expect After a Comprehensive Eye Exam

If your eyes are healthy, we’ll help you schedule your next annual eye exam to ensure that your good health continues. If the eye doctor uncovered any areas of concern, he or she will walk you through a discussion of your vision care options to address it.

If It's Determined You Need a Prescription:

If it’s determined you need a prescription for glasses or contact lenses, you will return for an eyeglass or contact lens fitting appointment where we will calculate your exact prescription to help you achieve comfortable vision that allows you to see better than ever.

If It's Determined You Would Benefit from Computer Vision Treatment or Vision Therapy:

Depending on how much time you spend in front of a digital screen during the day and what computer vision syndrome symptoms you’re experiencing, we may recommend computer vision treatment to help you protect your eyes from digital eye strain and achieve comfortable vision while viewing your screens.

For vision issues that glasses, contact lenses, or surgery can’t treat alone, we may recommend non-surgical, optometric vision therapy – a program in which doctor and patient engage in visual activities designed to strengthen the visual system and teach it to correct its impairments.
