An eye exam is a procedure in which your eyes and vision will be checked by an optometrist. Eye exams are very important in the management of your eye health, as they can detect a variety of vision issues and eye diseases including:
Undergoing regular eye exams means your optometrist will be able to diagnose and treat these types of vision problems before they become a bigger issue. This is why it is important to get your regular eye exam every two years or as recommended by your optometrist, even if your vision feels clear.
If you need an eye exam, you can book online and our Oscar Wylee optometrists will be happy to conduct your eye exam.
Not only are eye exams crucial in maintaining your eye health, they can also provide important insight into your wider, general health. There are a variety of health conditions that may present symptoms within the eye. Your optometrist may be able to detect these during a regular eye exam and give recommendations for further treatment by a healthcare provider.
Health conditions that may be detected in an eye exam include:
It is always best to speak with your doctor if you believe you have any health issues.
Note: Retinal imaging may not be provincially covered. It is always best to double check what eye care you may be covered for, before your appointment.
Our optometrists will then conduct their own examinations, these include:
A combination eye exam at Oscar Wylee, is an examination that includes both the standard eye exam outlined above and some additional testing.

It is crucial to get a child’s eyes examined as good eyesight is very important to their development and learning. As classroom learning is mostly visual, any eye issues can impact how they succeed in areas such as reading and writing. Regular eye exams for children can detect vision problems early on, allowing for good treatment options.
Though there are many ways you could go about examining your eyesight at home, whether it be online or using a printed chart, it is not recommended. Home eye exams are likely to produce inaccurate results and should not be used as a conclusive diagnostic tool.
