Comprehensive Eye Exam
A comprehensive eye exam is far more than a vision check. It's a complete look at how you see and how healthy your eyes are — and it's often where the first signs of broader health conditions appear.
What your exam covers
In a single visit, your doctor checks your vision, updates your prescription, and examines the health of your eyes inside and out.
- Updated glasses and contact lens prescription
- Eye pressure and glaucoma screening
- Retinal and optic nerve health
- Binocular vision and eye teaming
- A look at the ocular surface for dry eye
More than a vision check
The eye is the only place a doctor can see your blood vessels and nerves directly. A routine exam can surface early signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol — often before any other symptoms appear.
Technology that sees more
We use advanced imaging so we can detect subtle changes early, and frequently without dilation.
- Optomap wide-field retinal imaging
- OCT imaging of the retina and optic nerve
- Digital records to track changes over time
How often should you come in
Most healthy adults should have a comprehensive exam every one to two years — and every year if you wear contacts, are over 60, or manage a condition like diabetes.
Common Questions
Comprehensive Eye Exam, answered.
What’s the difference between a vision screening and a comprehensive exam?
A screening is a quick pass/fail check of distance clarity. A comprehensive exam evaluates your full vision along with the health of your eyes, inside and out.
Will I need to be dilated?
Sometimes. We often use optomap wide-field imaging as an alternative, and your doctor will recommend dilation when it adds real diagnostic value.
