Eye Exams

A comprehensive eye examination at Rainbow Optics focuses on three key areas: Refraction (testing to determine a spectacle prescription), eye efficiency, and eye health.

 

Refraction

This area of testing looks for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia (age related focusing difficulty). The information from refraction is used by your doctor to create your glasses prescription and is a starting point for the prescription used for contact lenses. The doctors at Rainbow Optics perform their own refractions blending their experience with the art and science necessary to determine the best prescription for you.

Eye Efficiency

Our eyes must properly aim together and focus in order to function efficiently. Problems with eye aiming or focusing can result in reduced speed and comprehension for reading tasks and can hinder sports performance. The doctors at Rainbow Optics routinely test for eye inefficiencies and will discuss various treatment options when indicated.

Eye Health

Our doctors are trained to diagnose diseases of the eye such as cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and complications from diabetes and are able to render treatment for many conditions. Our doctors also co-manage treatment with our local surgical colleagues for LASIK, cataract surgery, and other specialized care. You will receive a thorough assessment of the health of your eyes at Rainbow Optics including dilated retinal examination.
