Berris Optical has Doctors of Optometry who are
primary health care providers who examine,
diagnose, treat and manage diseases and disorders
of the visual system, the eye and associated
structures as well as diagnose related systemic
conditions.

The American Optometric Association says the
thoroughness of the eye exam is the mark of
quality. Here is what a comprehensive eye exam
consist of:

review of family and personal health and eye history

testing of your ability to see near and far distances

test to determine the presence of nearsightedness,
farsightedness, astigmatism and focusing problems
at near

examination of the internal and external structures of
the eyes

dilated eye examinations to check the health of the
entire eye for signs of eye disease (like glaucoma,
cataracts and retinal disorders) and general health
problems that may show up in the eye

testing to determine your ability to focus and
coordinate the eyes and to judge depth and see
colors accurately

Thorough care also includes a discussion of the
exam's findings and any treatment the optometrist
prescribes, as well as personal advise about such
matters as good vision on the job, eye safety,
sports vision, maintaining eye health, prescribing
lens choices and environmental factors affecting
your eyes and vision.

Also remember that a vision screening or a
drivers license screening is not a substitute for
a thorough eye examination.
