Comprehensive eye exams
A comprehensive eye exam does more than update a glasses prescription. It assesses how clearly you see at distance and near, how your eyes work together, and the health of the structures inside and behind the eye. Many eye conditions develop gradually and without pain or obvious symptoms, which is why regular exams matter even when your vision feels unchanged.
A typical exam includes a review of your health history and any medications, vision and refraction testing to determine your prescription, eye-pressure measurement, an assessment of eye alignment and focusing, and an examination of the front of the eye and the retina. Diagnostic imaging is used where clinically indicated to document the retina and optic nerve so changes can be compared over time.
How often you should be examined depends on your age, health, and risk factors. Children, adults over 65, people with diabetes, and anyone with a family history of eye disease are generally examined more frequently. Your optometrist will recommend an interval based on your findings. Read what to expect at a comprehensive eye exam →
Dry eye assessment and therapy
Dry eye disease is common and often under-recognised. It can present as burning, grittiness, redness, watering, fluctuating vision, or discomfort with screens and contact lenses. Because tearing can be the eye's response to dryness, watery eyes are sometimes a sign of dry eye rather than the opposite.
Assessment looks at tear quantity and quality, the surface of the eye, and the function of the meibomian glands along the lid margin, which produce the oily layer that keeps tears from evaporating too quickly. Management is matched to the findings and may include lid hygiene, targeted drops, environmental and screen-use changes, nutritional considerations, or in-clinic treatments where indicated.

Children's eye exams and myopia management
Children often do not report vision problems, because they have no basis for comparison — what they see is simply normal to them. Vision plays a substantial role in learning, reading, and sport, and an eye exam checks far more than letters on a chart: focusing, eye teaming, tracking, and eye health are all assessed using age-appropriate methods, including for children too young to read.
Myopia (short-sightedness) often begins in childhood and can progress as a child grows. Myopia management refers to strategies intended to slow that progression, which may include specialised spectacle lenses, contact lenses, or other options depending on the child's age, prescription, and lifestyle. Suitability is determined individually following a full assessment.
Diabetic and retinal screening
Diabetes can affect the small blood vessels of the retina, sometimes before any change in vision is noticed. Regular retinal assessment allows changes to be identified and monitored, and findings to be communicated to your physician or diabetes care team where appropriate.
Retinal imaging documents the back of the eye so that images can be compared between visits. This is also relevant in monitoring conditions such as glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration, where tracking subtle change over time is central to care.
Contact lens fittings
Contact lenses are medical devices, and a fitting is a separate process from a glasses prescription. Fitting involves measuring the curvature and dimensions of the eye's surface, assessing the tear film, selecting a lens material and design suited to your eyes, and confirming the fit and vision on the eye before finalising.
Options include daily and reusable soft lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses for presbyopia, and rigid gas-permeable or specialty designs for eyes that are harder to fit. Training in safe handling, wear schedules, and hygiene is included, along with follow-up to confirm the eyes remain healthy in the lenses.
Eyewear, lenses, and coatings
Frames are fitted by trained optical professionals, taking into account your prescription, facial measurements, and how you use your eyes day to day. The lens itself often matters more than the frame: single-vision, progressive, and occupational designs each suit different needs, and lens material affects thickness, weight, and impact resistance.
Options such as anti-reflective coatings, blue-light filtering, photochromic lenses that darken outdoors, and prescription sunglasses are discussed in the context of your prescription and daily activities rather than as a standard package.
Insurance, coverage, and direct billing
Coverage for eye exams, eyewear, and contact lenses varies by jurisdiction, insurer, and individual plan. Some public health plans cover exams for specific age groups or medical conditions, and many workplace benefit plans include a periodic allowance for eyewear or lenses.
Direct billing to insurers is offered where available, and itemised receipts are provided for reimbursement where direct billing is not possible. Clinic teams can confirm what applies at your location and outline any costs before treatment proceeds.
Common questions
How often should I have an eye exam?
It depends on your age, eye health, and risk factors. Children, adults over 65, people with diabetes, and those with a family history of eye disease are generally seen more often. Your optometrist will recommend an interval based on your individual findings.
Is a comprehensive eye exam just a vision test?
No. Determining your prescription is one part of it. A comprehensive exam also assesses eye pressure, eye alignment and focusing, the front surface of the eye, and the retina and optic nerve — areas where conditions can develop without symptoms.
Do I need a separate appointment for contact lenses?
A contact lens fitting involves measurements and assessments beyond a glasses prescription, including evaluating the tear film and confirming the fit on the eye. It is a distinct service and is often scheduled alongside or following an eye exam.
At what age should a child have their first eye exam?
Children can be examined well before they are able to read, using age-appropriate testing methods. Because vision is central to learning and development, and children rarely report difficulty themselves, early and regular assessment is advised. Ask your clinic about recommended timing for your child's age.
My eyes water constantly — can that still be dry eye?
Yes. Excess tearing is frequently a response to an unstable tear film, so watery eyes can be a symptom of dry eye disease rather than evidence against it. Assessment of the tear film and lid glands helps identify what is driving the symptoms.
Will my insurance cover the visit?
Coverage varies by jurisdiction, insurer, and plan. Direct billing is available where supported, and receipts are provided for reimbursement otherwise. Your clinic can confirm what applies and outline any costs beforehand.
