What happens in an eye test?

During eye testing, your optometrist will ask about your overall health, lifestyle, vision quality, and any eyewear you may use during the exam.

An eye examination comprises three key components:

- Tests to examine your eye’s outer surface and your eye movements

- Tests to check the condition of your inner eye

- Tests to determine whether you need new glasses or contacts

The following activities may be performed during your eye exam, with your optometrist explaining each one as you go along:

- Letter reading on a chart using multiple lenses. Other examinations are available if you cannot read, such as matching letters to pictures or identifying images.

- Getting a view of your eye interior using an ophthalmoscope. This will have the optometrist positioning themselves near you and directing a bright light into your eye. You’ll then be instructed to look in various directions.

- The optometrist will also perform a muscle control check to ensure that your eye movements are accurate.

- To detect glaucoma or problems with eye pressure, they apply a pressure check using the ‘puff of air’ test.

After an eye test

Once eye testing is done, the optometrist will explain what they may have found. Also, they’ll discuss:

- Whether you need different or new glasses

- What signs of an eye condition they discovered

The optometrist will write a lens prescription if you need new eyeglasses.

However, if they think you need to be checked at a hospital, they’ll arrange a referral or let your GP know so they can book an appointment.
