Vision Exam

A vision exam (or comprehensive eye exam) is a series of tests conducted by an optometrist or ophthalmologist to evaluate visual acuity and the overall health of your eyes. It involves measuring how clearly you see (refraction), testing eye muscle function, checking pupil responses, and conducting a retinal exam to screen for diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, or diabetes.
