Comprehensive Eye Exams

Your vision is our priority. At Lifetime Eyecare, we provide thorough comprehensive eye exams for patients of all ages to ensure not only clear vision but also healthy eyes.

A vision screening provides a brief snapshot of your eye health; similar to having your blood pressure checked for your physical but without completing the rest of the physical. It can provide helpful information but doesn’t  give a full picture of your overall eye health and how your eyes work together.

What is vision screening?

 Visual acuity is a key part of your eye exam, since iit measures how clearly you can see. Most commonly tested using a letter chart, visual acuity helps determine the sharpness of your vision at a specific distance, like up close or far away.
 

During your comprehensive exam, our experienced optometrists will assess your visual acuity, screen for eye diseases, and evaluate how well your eyes work together. We check for common conditions like nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia, as well as serious eye health issues such as glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease.
 

You’ve probably heard terms like 20/20 vision; this means you can see at 20 feet what a person with normal vision should see at that distance. If your vision is 20/40, it means you need to be 20 feet away to see what someone with normal vision can see from 40 feet.
 

While visual acuity tells us a lot about the clarity of your vision, it’s just one part of your overall eye health. That’s why a comprehensive eye exam is important.

Whether you wear glasses, contacts, or have never had an eye exam before, our goal is to deliver personalized, high-quality care using the latest diagnostic technology

What are the Benefits of a Comprehensive Eye Exam?

Your eyes do more than help you see! They’re also windows into your overall health. That’s why comprehensive eye exams are essential, even if you think your vision is fine.

A comprehensive eye exam goes beyond checking how clearly you can see. It allows your eye doctor to detect early signs of eye diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease, often before you notice any symptoms. Early detection is key to protecting your vision and preventing long-term damage.

These exams also assess how well your eyes work together, monitor changes in your prescription, and can even uncover health issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, or neurological conditions.

Whether you wear glasses or not, routine eye exams help ensure your vision stays sharp and your eyes stay healthy at every age.
