Comprehensive Eye Care
-
People who enjoy
excellent vision often wonder
whether they really need to
schedule an eye exam. But an eye
exam is just as much about
checking the healthiness of your
eyes as it is evaluating how
well you can see. - Eye disease is not
always accompanied by
recognizable symptoms. Waiting
for them to appear can put your
vision at risk, which is why a
regular eye exam is important.
It is also an indicator of your
systemic health problems such as
diabetes and high blood
pressure. BE EYEWISE- schedule
regular eye exam!! >80% of all
visual impairment is treatable,
preventable or curable, so early
diagnosis and care are
critical.
- A comprehensive adult
eye examination may include, but
is not limited to the following
tests (an individual patient’s
presenting signs and symptoms,
along with the professional
judgment of the Our Doctors, may
significantly influence the
testing done).

Additional testing may be needed
based on the results of the previous

or to provide a more in depth
assessment. These can include, but are
not limited to tests such as retinal
photography, gonioscopy, corneal
pachymetry, optic nerve or macular scans
(OCT), ultrasound, contrast sensitivity,
automated visual field testing.
All
of the test results are used in the
final analysis to determine the
appropriate prescription lenses to treat
refractive and visual problems, to
develop a program of eye training
exercises, or to recommend medical or
surgical treatment.
Recommendations for future eye
care can be made based on the history of
eye health and the results of the
examination.

Some
diseases do not give
early warning signs. By
the time people notice a
difference in their
vision, the disease may
be in an advanced stage.
However, your eye doctor
can detect signs of
these diseases during a
comprehensive exam
Vision Problems
Changes in your eyes can affect your sight:
-
Nearsightedness,
farsightedness and
astigmatism – These
refractive errors
can be corrected
with prescription
eyeglasses, contacts
or laser
surgery.
-
Amblyopia –
Looking in a mirror,
your eyes may look
normal, but during a
vision exam the
doctor may detect
amblyopia, a
condition where one
or both eyes are
misaligned or one
eye needs higher
correction than the
other.
-
Focusing –
Children and adults
who struggle to
focus their eyes can
experience problems
seeing and
reading.
-
Teaming –
For proper vision,
both eyes must work
together. If they
don’t, people may
experience headache
and eyestrain, and
struggle to read
correctly.
-
Strabismus
– Described as
crossed or turned
eyes, strabismus can
affect depth
perception. If not
corrected, amblyopia
may develop.
Systemic Diseases
-
In addition to looking for
eye diseases, the eye doctor
may detect early signs of
other medical problems that
require attention. These
include diabetes, high blood
pressure, some cancers and
high cholesterol.
Frequently Asked Questions
Specialized equipment and
procedures, which are not
available as part of a vision
screening program, are needed to
adequately evaluate eyes and
vision.
Only an ophthalmologist can
conduct a comprehensive eye and
vision examination. Tej Eye
center’s doctors have the
specialized training necessary
to make a definitive diagnosis
and prescribe treatment.
A comprehensive adult eye
examination includes:
- Patient and family health history
- Visual acuity measurement
- Preliminary tests of visual function and eye health, including depth perception, color vision, peripheral (side) vision and the response of the pupils to light
- Assessment of refractive status to determine the presence of nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism
- Evaluation of eye focusing, eye teaming and eye movement abilities
- Eye health examination
- Additional tests as needed
Vision screening programs can't
substitute for regular
professional vision care.
Children or adults who pass a
vision screening could still
have an eye health or vision
problem. Comprehensive eye
examinations are the only
effective way to confirm or rule
out any eye disease or vision
problem.
