What to Expect During Your Eye Exam
Our comprehensive eye exams go beyond just checking your clarity. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:
Detailed Patient History: We begin by discussing your medical history, family history, and any vision problems you may be experiencing. This helps us understand any risk factors that could affect your eye health.
Visual Acuity Test: This test measures how clearly you can see at multiple distances. It helps us determine if you need corrective lenses and your prescription.
Refraction Assessment: We use this test to determine the exact prescription for your eyeglasses or contact lenses so you get the most accurate vision correction.
Eye Health Evaluation: Our eye doctors will examine the overall health of your eyes, checking for signs of serious diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy.
Eye Pressure Measurement: This test checks for elevated pressure in your eyes, a key indicator of glaucoma.
Visual Field Test: This test measures peripheral (side) vision and can help detect certain eye and brain conditions.
Eye Care for All Age Groups
We provide eye care services tailored to different age groups:
Eye Care for Children
At Vancouver Vision Clinic, our pediatric eye doctors provide comprehensive eye exams for kids, beginning with a free InfantSEE assessment to ensure your child’s vision starts on the right track.
Children's eye exams help us screen for refractive errors like myopia and underdeveloped visual skills that can interfere with learning and development.
Our treatment options include a wide range of kids' eyeglasses, vision therapy, and strabismus surgery to address eye misalignment issues like lazy eye.
Eye Care for Adults
Regular eye exams are essential for adults to detect and manage conditions like presbyopia, computer vision syndrome, and ocular diseases. Our comprehensive services include providing presbyopic glasses to make reading fine print easier. Other effective vision correction solutions for vision problems include LASIK, contact lenses, and ortho-k.
Our experienced eye doctors help you maintain optimal eye health and clear vision throughout your adult years.

Eye health becomes even more critical as you age. We focus on age-related eye conditions, offering cataract co-management and addressing daunting issues like your eyesight fading due to diabetic eye disease, macular degeneration, or glaucoma.
