Eye & Vision Exams in Sweet Home, Oregon
At Advanced Family EyeCare, we strive to provide comprehensive, primary eye care for the whole family. Preventive and routine eye exams are important to maintaining good eye health. Often, eye and vision problems do not have obvious symptoms or signs but are easily diagnosed by a licensed optometrist. By diagnosing eye and vision conditions early on, our optometrist is able to provide treatment options and, in many cases, restore vision or prevent vision loss.
The American Optometric Association recommends yearly or bi-yearly eye and vision exams, depending on whether you are at-risk or not.
Eye Exam & Consultation
During an eye exam, Dr. Michael Stoner will ask you questions about any symptoms or issues you are experiencing, medications you're currently taking, any blurry vision, your work environment, and your overall health.
Family history and previous eye or vision conditions will also be discussed during this part of the examination.
Dr. Stoner will consider this information when determining any treatments or recommendations.
Vision Testing
Regular vision testing and evaluations ensure that you always have the clearest vision possible. We provide regular vision acuity tests as part of a comprehensive eye exam.
Dr. Stoner will measure how each eye is seeing by using a wall eye chart and a reading eye chart. The results of these tests are portrayed as a fraction, with 20/20 being the standard for normal distance and reading vision.
Depending on the results of your vision test, Dr. Stoner may prescribe corrective glasses, contacts, or eye exercises.
