When to Visit Us for an Eye Exam

No matter your age, consistent trips to the optometrist are important to monitor your visual health.

The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommends:

  • Adults (20–64) should have an eye exam every 2 years.
  • Seniors (65+) should have an eye exam annually.

Depending on your risk factors for vision problems and eye diseases, we may recommend an eye exam schedule tailored to your specific needs.

Why Are Regular Eye Exams Important?

As we age, it’s a natural process for our eyes to undergo transformations. However, certain age-related conditions, such as presbyopia or cataracts, can significantly affect your vision over time. 

Regular eye examinations provide us with the opportunity to monitor these changes in your vision and overall ocular health. They can confirm that your prescription is current and address any questions or concerns you might have.

Trust us to prioritize your eye health because your vision matters.

What to Expect During Your Eye Exam

During your eye examination, we’ll go over your medical history and discuss any family history of eye disease or vision issues. The next step involves our team conducting a series of tests to verify the health of your eyes and determine your prescription.

Upon identifying any indications of eye disease or other vision-related conditions, we won’t leave you in the dark. Instead, we’ll collaborate with you to craft a personalized treatment strategy designed to protect your vision.

We believe in the power of a tailored approach, combining our expertise with your lifestyle, budget, and vision needs.

Getting a Dilated Eye Exam

We also offer and recommend dilated eye exams at Central Optometry with your annual eye exam to check for signs of eye diseases early on when they’re easier to treat.

A dilated eye exam is simple and painless; your doctor will give you eye drops to widen your pupil and make it easier to check for eye diseases. Dilating your pupil allows more light into your and helps us check for common eye problems such as:

  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Glaucoma
  • Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

We recommend arranging for transportation with friends or family after your exam if you have had trouble after dilation in the past. For most patients, it affects your up-close vision for a couple of hours.
