What Happens During the Eye Test?

​

It is started by asking questions such as:

  • Have you noticed any changes to your eyes or your vision lately?

  • Have you been generally healthy or are you taking any medications?

​

Your vision will be checked in your current glasses and some checks will be performed to see if any improvements can be made. This is the part when you are looking at the Snellen or letter chart.
