Frequently asked questions

What do eye doctors check for during eye exams?

Our comprehensive eye exams in St. Charles involve much more than updating your prescription. Our optometrist will assess your eye health and look for early signs of conditions such as:

  • Glaucoma 
  • Macular degeneration 
  • Diabetic retinopathy 
  • Cataracts 
  • Dry eye syndrome 
  • Systemic conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes 

How often should you get an eye exam?

Eye exams are typically recommended every one to two years to help maintain clear vision and detect eye problems early. You may require annual or more frequent eye exams if you:

  • Use glasses or contact lenses 
  • Are over 60 years old 
  • Have diabetes, high blood pressure, or other medical conditions 
  • Have a family history of eye disease 
  • Have had a previous eye surgery or injury 
  • Are African American or Hispanic, who face higher risks for certain eye conditions 

How long does an eye exam take?

Most exams take about 30 to 60 minutes. Annual eye exams include vision tests, eye health assessments, and personalized recommendations. Contact lens fittings may require additional time for precise measurements.
