Description

A standard ophthalmic exam is a comprehensive series of tests done by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. These doctors specialize in eye health. They'll use these tests to check both your vision and the health of your eyes. A standard ophthalmic exam is also known as a comprehensive eye exam or a routine eye exam. Eye checkups can detect various conditions, including: Refractive Errors: Such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, which can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses. Eye Diseases: Conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy can be identified through eye exams. Cataracts: Clouding of the eye's lens, often associated with aging, can be detected. Amblyopia (Lazy Eye): A condition where one eye doesn't develop properly, leading to reduced vision. Strabismus: Misalignment of the eyes, which can affect depth perception. Conjunctivitis: Inflammation of the conjunctiva, commonly known as pink eye. Regular eye checkups help catch these issues early, improving the chances of successful treatment and preserving vision.
