EYE EXAMS

At Delaney Eye Center, we strive to provide comprehensive, primary eye care for the whole family. Preventive and routine eye exams are important for maintaining good eye health. Often, eye and vision problems do not have obvious symptoms or signs but are easily diagnosed by a licensed optometrist. By diagnosing eye and vision conditions early on, our optometrist is able to provide treatment options and in many cases restore or prevent vision loss. The American Optometric Association recommends yearly or bi-yearly eye and vision exams, depending on whether you are at-risk or not.

  • EYE EXAM AND CONSULTATION 

During an eye exam, Dr. Josette Salazar, OD will ask you questions about any symptoms or issues you are experiencing, medications you are currently taking, any blurry vision, your work environment, and your overall health. Family history and previous eye or vision conditions will also be discussed during this part of the examination. Dr. Salazar, OD will consider this information when determining any treatments or recommendations.

 

  • VISION TESTING 

Regular vision testing and evaluations ensure that you always have the clearest vision possible. Our Orlando optometrist provides regular vision acuity tests as part of a comprehensive eye exam. Dr. Salazar, OD will measure how each eye is seeing by using a wall eye chart and a reading eye chart. The results of these tests are portrayed as a fraction, with 20/20 being the standard for normal distance and reading vision. Depending on the results of your vision test, Dr. Salazar, OD may prescribe corrective glasses, contacts, or eye exercises.

 

  • EYE FUNCTION TESTING 

In addition to vision testing, an eye exam in our Orlando office includes testing eye functionality. Our optometrist performs several tests to evaluate depth perception, color vision, eye muscle capabilities, peripheral vision, and responsiveness to light. Several other simple tests are completed to determine whether the eyes are focusing, moving, and working together properly. The test results enable Dr. Salazar, OD to diagnose any underlying conditions that may be impairing the eye's ability to focus or work together.

 

  • EYE HEALTH 

As part of a comprehensive eye exam, our Orlando optometrist examines the overall health of the eye through a visual examination and tonometry. Dr. Salazar, OD evaluates eye health by visually inspecting the eye and eyelids using magnification and a bright light. To examine the internal structures of the eye, we may dilate the pupils. Increased eye pressure may be an indicator of glaucoma, so we utilize tonometry to measure eye pressure. After completing these short tests, Dr. Salazar, OD reviews the results and discusses any necessary treatment options with you.
