What is an eye exam?

An eye exam is a detailed evaluation of your vision and eye health performed by a licensed eye doctor. During the exam, your doctor will test how well you see at different distances, look for common vision issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, and check the overall health of your eyes for eye disease. A comprehensive eye exam can also help identify early signs of systemic health issues like diabetes or hypertension, making it an essential component of preventative healthcare.

Eye exams help catch problems early—even ones that don’t show obvious symptoms—and keep your vision clear and healthy. Regular exams are a simple way to take care of your eyes and enjoy your best possible vision.
