Eye exams
A comprehensive exam, once a year or as advised
For adults who want their prescription checked and the health of their eyes looked at.
The exam measures how well you see, finds the prescription that suits you and checks the front and back of each eye. Dr. Madrid explains each result and writes down what he finds.
It takes about an hour. You leave with a copy of your prescription.
Four steps
What happens at the visit
Step 1: Your history
Dr. Madrid asks how your eyes feel and how you use them during the day.
Step 2: Seeing
You read the chart, and the doctor finds the lenses that give you the clearest view.
Step 3: Eye health
The doctor measures the pressure in each eye and looks at the front and back of the eye.
Step 4: Your results
The doctor explains what he found, answers your questions and gives you your prescription.

About the exam
Do I need an exam if I see fine?
Yes. Some eye conditions cause no change in your vision at first, so the exam checks the health of your eyes as well as your prescription.
Will my eyes be dilated?
Only when Dr. Madrid thinks it is needed. He explains why first, and you decide.
