View More ResourcesWhat is a comprehensive eye exam at Opto-Mization?
A comprehensive eye exam at Opto-Mization evaluates both vision clarity and functional visual skills, including eye teaming, focusing, tracking, and visual processing.
How is this different from a routine eye exam?
Routine eye exams primarily focus on prescription strength and eye health. Opto-Mization’s comprehensive visual exams also assess how the eyes and brain work together, which is critical for visual comfort, reading, and overall performance.
Who should book a comprehensive eye exam?
Anyone seeking an eye exam or simply curious about how well their vision truly functions should book a comprehensive eye exam. It is appropriate for all ages, and the results often reveal aspects of vision that are not identified through routine testing.
Can problems be found even if eyesight is clear?
Yes. Many patients have 20/20 eyesight but still experience symptoms caused by binocular vision or focusing inefficienciesthat standard tests do not detect.
What symptoms often lead to this type of exam?
Common symptoms include headaches or migraines, eye strain, blurred or double vision, difficulty reading, fatigue, motion sensitivity, and trouble sustaining visual attention.
How long does a comprehensive eye exam take?
A comprehensive eye exam takes a little longer than a standard eye test to allow time for more in-depth functional testing and discussion of the results.
What happens after the exam?
After the exam, results are clearly explained and a personalized care planmay include glasses, vision therapy, or additional treatment depending on the findings.
Is a referral required for a comprehensive eye exam?
No referral is needed. Patients can book directly at Opto-Mization in Victoria or Nanaimo.
