(316) 942-7496Some people might think that a contact lens exam in Wichita and a regular eye exam are virtually the same thing. There are some major differences between the two types of exams, however, and our Wichita optometrist performs both types.
If it's been awhile since your last vision exam, you will want to see our optometrist in Wichita right away. An eye exam is completely painless and most people do not feel any discomfort. When you come in for an eye exam, you can expect the following kinds of tests to be done:
Once your optometrist in Wichita completes all of these tests during a vision exam, you'll receive the appropriate prescription and/or treatment.
During a contact lens exam in Wichita, the optometrist may perform many of the same tests performed in a regular vision exam. However, with contact lenses, there are a few more additional tests that are required in order to fit patients with the perfect pair of contacts. The optometrist will check your eyes for visual acuity, eye performance, and eye health to help determine the prescription necessary to correct refractive errors. Since contact lenses aren't one-size-fits-all, the eye doctor will also have to take measurements of certain parts of the eye including the iris, cornea, and pupil. Other tests done during a contact lens exam include:
In order to get fitted perfectly for contacts, several visits may be required.
