General Eye Care

Comprehensive Eye Checkup

A thorough evaluation of your vision and eye health -- whether it's time for a routine checkup or you've been noticing everyday discomfort you've learned to live with.

Book Your Comprehensive Eye Checkup

Just due for a routine checkup?

If it's been a while since your last eye exam, or you've never had a comprehensive one, this is exactly the right starting point -- it covers your vision, eye health, and early screening for common conditions in a single visit.

Noticing screen-related strain or dry, tired eyes?

Eye strain after screen use, occasional dryness, or headaches by the end of the day are common, often-overlooked complaints. A comprehensive checkup can identify whether something specific -- like dry eye disease or uncorrected screen-related strain -- is contributing.

A comprehensive eye checkup is the right starting point whether you have a specific complaint or simply haven’t had your eyes examined in a while. Unlike a quick vision screening, it evaluates your overall eye health — not just whether you can read the letters on a chart.

Many common conditions, including dry eye disease and digital eye strain (computer vision syndrome), are identified during exactly this kind of routine evaluation rather than because someone booked an appointment specifically for them. A thorough checkup also serves as an early screening opportunity for conditions like glaucoma and diabetic eye disease, which often have no symptoms in their earliest, most treatable stages.

Treatment Options

Updated Glasses Prescription: Many checkups reveal a simple refractive change that's been quietly affecting daily comfort and clarity.
Dry Eye Management: From lubricating drops to addressing contributing factors, tailored to how significant the dryness is.
Screen Use Guidance: Practical adjustments to reduce digital eye strain, alongside correction of any underlying refractive error contributing to it.
Referral for Specialized Care: If the checkup identifies a condition needing a specific specialist evaluation -- retina, glaucoma, or otherwise -- you'll be guided to exactly the right next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get a comprehensive eye checkup?

Generally every 1-2 years for adults with no known eye conditions, or annually if you have risk factors like diabetes, a family history of eye disease, or are over 40. Children and anyone with an existing eye condition may need more frequent checkups as advised by their eye specialist.

What does a comprehensive eye checkup actually involve?

It typically includes a vision and refraction test, an eye pressure check, evaluation of the tear film and eye surface, and a dilated examination of the retina and optic nerve. It's painless and usually takes well under an hour.

I have no symptoms -- do I still need a checkup?

Yes. Several common conditions, including glaucoma and early diabetic eye disease, typically cause no symptoms in their earliest and most treatable stages. A comprehensive checkup is often the only way to catch these before they progress.
