Your Exam

What a comprehensive exam covers

A comprehensive eye examination is a medical look at your eyes — not just a lens check.

1

An accurate prescription

Measured by a doctor, and brought fully up to date — the foundation for glasses or contacts that actually work for you.

2

Screening that matters

We screen for conditions a quick vision check can miss — glaucoma, cataracts and retinal changes among them.

3

Plain-English answers

A clear explanation of what we find, and what it means for your eyes — no jargon, no mystery.

4

A plan, same day

Whether that’s new glasses today or a referral to one of our own specialists, you leave knowing the next step.
