What Are Eye Exams & Why Do You Need Them?

What Is an Eye Exam?

An eye exam is more than just reading letters on a chart. It’s a comprehensive check-up of your visual system and overall eye health.

At VISIONMOOD, we combine cutting-edge technology with expert care to ensure your vision is at its best—and that your eyes are healthy inside and out. Whether you’re updating your prescription or checking for early signs of disease, regular eye exams are a crucial part of your wellness routine.

What Happens During an Eye Exam?

A modern eye exam at VISIONMOOD includes:

  • Vision Clarity Test – Checking how well you see near and far.
  • Refraction Test – Determining your precise prescription.
  • Eye Health Evaluation – Screening for conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and dry eye.

Our immersive experience makes eye exams faster, more comfortable, and more accurate than traditional methods.


Why Are Eye Exams So Important?

Even if you see clearly, eye exams are vital for your overall health. Here’s why:

  1. Early Detection of Disease – Eye exams can detect signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, and even tumors—before you notice any symptoms.
  2. Prevent Vision Loss – Many eye conditions develop slowly and painlessly. Regular check-ups help prevent irreversible damage.
  3. Update Your Prescription – Wearing outdated lenses can cause headaches, eye strain, and fatigue.
  4. Better Performance at Work and Play – Whether you're working long hours or enjoying outdoor activities, sharp vision makes all the difference.


How Often Should You Have an Eye Exam?

We recommend:

  • Every 1–2 years for adults with no symptoms.
  • Annually for those who wear prescription glasses or contact lenses.
  • Immediately if you're experiencing eye discomfort, blurry vision, or headaches.
