FAQ's About Eye Exams

Do I need to do anything to prepare for my eye examination?

Take your glasses and contact lenses with you to your appointment and be prepared to supply the doctor with your medical history. If you have specific questions you would like addressed, write them down and bring the list with you to your appointment.


How often do I need to see my eye doctor?

In most cases, our office recommends a comprehensive eye examination every twelve months. This way you can receive a new prescription and can keep your eyes healthy.


Do I need an appointment for an eye exam?

Yes, in order to allow for needed time to give you a thorough exam we require that everyone has a scheduled appointment before their eye exam.


Is there a cancellation fee for my eye exam?

Yes, we do have a 36 hour cancellation fee. If for anyone reason you need to change an appointment, please call us 36 hours in advance to change your appointment. Please be considerate of our office and other patients.


At what age should my child get their first eye exam?

Dr. Wright sees children as young as 6 months old. She participates in the InfantSee Program, which offers free eye exams to children under the age of one. Eighty percent of all learning is performed through vision. This can lead to misdiagnosed learning disabilities in children. It is important to schedule your child for an eye exam if you are noticing any possible vision issues such as squinting, headaches or holding books close to their face.
