A full examination of your vision and eye health, including glasses, eye pressure and the retina, to find problems early.
A comprehensive eye check-up looks at much more than how well you read the letter chart. It checks your glasses prescription, eye pressure, eye movements and the health of every part of the eye.
Many eye diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and early cataract, cause no symptoms at first. A full exam can find them before they affect your sight.
It is the right starting point for anyone with an eye concern, and a good routine check for adults, especially after the age of 40.
