Comprehensive Eye Exams for the Entire Family

When many people visit the eye doctor for their yearly eye exam, they think it is just for updating their prescription.  The truth is, determining your eye health is the most important thing that we do during your exam.  Ram Eye Care and Retina Center conducts comprehensive eye exams in Lady Lake, Florida and the surrounding area. We understand the importance of eye examinations for you and your entire family.  Our eye exams include a complete evaluation of all parts of the visual and ocular system.  While an eye examination can reveal problems with your visual acuity, they are also able to reveal other conditions you may not be aware of.  During your exam you can be evaluated for conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration,  and diabetic retinopathy. Schedule an appointment for a comprehensive eye exam in Lady Lake today at Ram Eye Care.

What you should bring to your eye exam

It’s important to bring any eyeglasses or contacts that you are currently using.  This will aid us in determining if you require a change in our prescription.  Also, bring a list of all medications that you currently are taking as well as any insurance information and identification.

Should people who wear glasses have their eyes examined more often than those who don’t?

Yes, people who wear glasses or contacts, or have a family history of eye disease, should definitely have their eyes examined more often.  Also, anyone with a chronic condition like diabetes should schedule more frequent eye exams.

What is included in a comprehensive eye exam?

When we do a thorough eye examination, we will evaluate the following:

  • Coordination and function of the eye muscles
  • Peripheral vision
  • The ability for the eyes to focus (Accommodative response)
  • Visual acuity
  • Do you need eyeglasses or contacts?
  • Intraocular pressure
  • Pupillary response
  • Eyelid health & function
  • Is there a presence of ocular disease such as “lazy eye” or diabetic eye disease?
  • Anterior segment of the eye to include your cornea, conjunctiva, iris, and lens

What You Can Expect During Your Eye Examination

In the course of conducting a thorough eye examination, it will be necessary to dilate your eyes.  The reason for this is that when your eyes are dilated, we can accurately assess the health of the posterior segment of the eye.  And this also includes the retina and the optic nerve. Therefore, we can detect glaucoma, macular degeneration or diabetic eye disease.

So, even when your vision is 20/20 you may still have a condition that could lead to a serious issue.  We are committed to preventing any condition that could threaten your eyesight.  While dilating your eyes will lead to blurriness, you may want to arrange to have a friend or family member drive you home.  Dilation usually wears off in 2 to 3 hours and you will return to normal.
