What Is a Comprehensive Eye Exam?
A comprehensive eye exam at Avant‑Garde Optometry in Frisco, TX is much more than just reading letters on a chart. Here’s what you can expect when Dr. Yee evaluates your vision and eye health:
Precision Refraction
Sphere, Astigmatism & Axis: Dr. Yee first fine‑tunes your sphere power, adjusts for any astigmatism, and then refines the axis to ensure crystal‑clear vision.
Topcon CV‑5000 Phoropter: Our automated phoropter speeds up this process by about 20%, so you spend less time in the chair and more time enjoying life in Frisco.
Best Visual Acuity: We measure your sharpest distance vision and near vision (at 40 cm), then automatically sync those numbers with our electronic health records to eliminate transcription errors.
Thorough Health Assessment
Slit Lamp Examination: Using the Topcon SL‑D2 slit lamp, Dr. Yee inspects the front (anterior) structures of your eyes, like the cornea and lens, then examines the back (posterior), including the retina and optic nerve.
Early Detection: This detailed look can reveal issues such as dry eye, cataracts, glaucoma, or retinal changes before you even notice symptoms.
Personalized Consultation
Clear Explanations: Vision can be complex; many patients worry that a “weaker” prescription means a chronic eye disease. We take extra time to explain your current prescription and any ocular conditions you may have.
Patient Questions Welcome: Whether you’re curious about digital eye strain or how allergies in Frisco’s spring pollen affect your eyes, we encourage every question!
What Is Included in a Comprehensive Eye Exam?
We believe every eye exam should be as unique as you are. That’s why we take the time to get to know your needs and concerns before we begin.
Every exam at our Frisco office includes:
- A detailed review of your medical and vision history
- Visual acuity testing and prescription measurement
- Eye coordination and depth perception evaluation
- Internal and external eye health checks
- Screening for eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts
- Digital imaging and retinal scans with advanced technology
Whether you’re updating your glasses, exploring contact lenses, or checking for early signs of eye conditions, our modern diagnostic tools and personalized care ensure you get the most out of every visit.
Will My Eyes Be Dilated During the Exam?
In most cases, no. We use the Optomap retinal imaging system, which allows us to thoroughly examine the back of your eyes without traditional dilation. This means no blurry vision or light sensitivity after your appointment, and the process only takes a few minutes!
Will You Explain My Results and Options After the Exam?
Absolutely. We take time to educate every patient. Dr. Yee will walk you through your current prescription, eye health findings, and any recommended next steps.
Many patients assume they need “stronger glasses” when, in fact, they may be experiencing early signs of a chronic condition. We’ll talk through everything and even suggest lens options tailored to your lifestyle and vision needs.
Do You Perform Eye Exams on Children?
Yes! We provide pediatric eye exams for children of all ages.
For younger patients, we perform specialized tests like the unilateral and alternating cover test to assess how a child’s eyes work together. This helps us detect issues such as strabismus or phorias early, which are important for learning and development. Our goal is to make the experience stress-free while ensuring your child’s vision is on track.
What Kind of Equipment Do You Use During the Comprehensive Eye Exam?
We utilize some of the most advanced tools in the industry:
- Wave-front Analyzer (KR-1W): One of the most accurate auto-refractors available, giving us precise objective refraction measurements.
- Topcon CT-80: Measures your intraocular pressure (IOP) quickly and comfortably.
- Optomap Imaging: A fast, non-invasive way to get a detailed picture of the retina—no dilation required in most cases.
- Topcon CV-5000 Automated Phoropter: Speeds up the refraction process by 20% while increasing accuracy.
- Topcon SL-D2 Slit Lamp: Used to examine the front and back of the eye for any signs of disease.
These technologies help us deliver faster exams without compromising quality and ensure we catch even the earliest signs of eye conditions.
