Adult & Senior Eye Exams

When you come to see us, we’ll first sit down and chat about your current general health. Let us know about any medications you are currently taking or recent developments regarding your overall well-being.

We may also ask you to share some brief family history that may be relevant, or ask if you are currently wearing or need corrective lenses.

Your Vision

One of the most noticeable aspects of your eye health is your vision. If it begins to falter, you may need corrective lenses or surgery to help you see clearly again.

We’ll perform a test with a standard letter chart to assess how well you can see things at a distance.

Your Prescription

If we determine that you need vision correction, we’ll use an automated phoropter to see which lens prescription is best for you.

Your Eyes & How They Respond

After testing your vision, we will use various tests such as tonometry and retinal imaging to assess the overall health of your eyes. We may dilate your pupils to have a better view of your optic nerve and retina.

We will also test your peripheral vision and eye movement to rule out vision loss or misaligned eyes.

How Often Should I
Have My Eyes Checked?

We strongly recommend getting your eyes checked annually to monitor your eye health and catch any diseases in the early stages.

If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of eye disease, Signature Eye Care recommends having a complete eye exam at least once a year.

The risk of developing certain conditions such as cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma increases as we age. After the age of 65, ensure you have your eyes checked regularly so we can provide you with the proper tools to manage these conditions.
