Primary Eye Care Consultation

A primary eye care consultation comprises a comprehensive array of investigations to determine the status of your vision and eye health.

A typical consultation includes the following assessments:

  • Case history
  • Assessment of vision
  • Measurement of refractive error
  • Assessment of the coordination between the two eyes
  • Evaluation of the ability to change focus
  • Evaluation of ocular health

At the end of the consultation, our optometrist will discuss the clinical findings with you and make recommendations.

Reminders:
Eyedrops for dilating pupils may be used during the examination. After dilation, your eyes will become sensitive to light and your near vision may be blurred for approximately 4-6 hours. Please bring a pair of sunglasses or an umbrella to use to minimize discomfort. Do not operate machinery, drive a car, ride a motorcycle or bicycle. Under normal circumstances, the pupils will return to normal after 4-6 hours.
