Comprehensive Eye Exams & Routine Check ups

A regular eye exam is key to good vision and healthy eyes

A comprehensive eye exam goes beyond checking for glasses. It assesses overall eye health and vision. This exam should be done every one to two years, based on age and health. Many eye diseases can start without symptoms and worsen over time, so early diagnosis is crucial to prevent vision loss. At Comly Eye Care, we use advanced equipment for each exam, allowing us to provide accurate prescriptions and find early signs of eye diseases.

What to expect at a Comprehensive Eye Exam:

  1. A review of your eye health and systemic health history

  2. Checking eye alignment and ocular motility or movement

  3. Ensuring your pupils work properly

  4. Visual Acuity or how well you can see. Are you 20/20?

  5. Refraction - Finding the power if you need glasses

  6. Intraocular pressure check and glaucoma screening

  7. Slit Lamp Exam - Assessing the anterior surface and looking for eyelid abnormalities, dry eye disease, or problems with the cornea

  8. Retinal examination. Using special lenses to look inside the eye, we look at the integrity of the retina, including watching for macular degeneration, optic nerve disease, changes to blood vessel, etc.

  9. Dilated Fundus Exam - Using drops to make the pupil very large, we get a much better view of the retina to rule out retinal tears and/or detachments, etc.

  10. Imaging. This may include retinal photos, fundus autofluorescence, and/or optical coherence tomography (OCT).
