The Complete Examination of the eyes takes one to one and one-half hours. During the examination the eyes will be dilated to allow a more thorough and accurate examination. (Dilation may make your eyes more sensitive to bright to bring sunglasses and/or have a friend or relative drive them home.) The examination includes light and blur your near vision temporarily and for that reason some patients prefer refraction, eye alignment exam, glaucoma test, cornea, c attract, and retinal exam. A contact lens fitting is not included but can be performed by one of our licensed opticians at your request for and addition fee.
