A comprehensive eye exam covers a lot of ground — refraction, binocular vision testing, tonometry, a retinal exam, and a screening visual field. That’s where we start for every patient. When findings from that exam raise a question — a suspicious optic nerve, unusual corneal curvature, abnormal pressure readings, early retinal changes — that’s when we turn to the instruments below.
These tools produce data that can’t be gathered with a slit lamp and a focusing lens alone. Some of them measure tissue in micrometers. Some capture electrical responses in your retina and visual cortex. Most are completely painless and take just a few minutes.
