The front desk executives help patients to complete initial registration formalities as well as providing all the assistance to the patients. They also schedule appointments through phone or in person for revisits/ first visits.
A well-lit and spacious waiting area welcomes the patients. Our OPD staff do their best to ensure that the patients are seen as soon as possible.
- Our OPD assistant will accompany the patient to take auto-refractor and non-contact tonometer readings.
- Visual acuity will be tested by determining the smallest letters you can read on a standardized eye chart by our optometrist. Each eye will be tested individually to determine your best vision at distance and near.
- A refraction, which checks any possible need for a glasses prescription, will be performed by our optometrist to determine the best focus for your eyes.This important test is performed to determine your best possible vision, as well as whether you have any refractive error for distance and near.
- Now after your refraction, ophthalmologist will begin your evaluation with an in-depth medical history. Ophthalmologist will also recheck your refraction and use a slit lamp microscope to look at health of the anterior segment of the eye.
- Pupil response to light will be examined to see if the light is being appropriately transmitted to your brain.
- All new exams normally include a dilated eye exam of both eyes. This important part of the exam will allow the doctor to look at the inside and back of the eyes and check the health of your lens, retina and optic nerve.
- After the examination, our ophthalmologist will discuss the results of the exam with you and answer any questions you might have!.
