Like the other two keys to your overall health – your doctor and your dentist – your yearly Optometric exam is a great check on your overall health. Your eyes provide an “early warning system” for many problems, from high blood pressure to nutritional deficiencies, as well as for specific eye problems.

The first thing to remember is that your Optometric exam is painless and quick. You'll usually take less than half an hour for the examination. State of the art examination equipment and advanced training for your Doctor of Optometry means you get accurate and fast diagnoses of any problems you may have. Even Glaucoma testing – a must for patients over 40 – is painless now, thanks to modern equipment.

Your eyes will be dilated with eyedrops, and then you'll receive your exam, with the Doctor giving your eyes a visual exam, followed by a detailed technical exam with state-of-the-art equipment. At the end, your Optometrist will consult with you on his or her findings, including general health issues and eyesight correction needs. He or she will make sure all your questions are answered.

That's it! We look forward to hearing from you. Make that appointment today. Your eyes and your general health depend on it.
