Eye Health Examinations
During an eye test optometrists routinely examine the internal and external structures of your eye. The optometrist will look into your eye by shining a light source through your pupil to illuminate the retina. This may take some time as the optometrist will want to ensure the fundus is viewed as completely as possible and all signs and symptoms of eye disease are noted. It is important that the causes of poor vision are determined before any treatment, including spectacles, is prescribed.
