  2. The human eye is a complex integration of various veins and other parts. With the help of each part, we are able to see things around us, but even a tiny fault in the eye can lead to some serious issues. Before you go out for a checkup in Ottawa, it’s vital to know about every aspect related to the eye exam. So what are these? Let’s discuss everything these things now.

  3. What Exactly is an Eye Exam? Physical Examination • This examination includes an entire health check of the eye from the outside to the inside. The doctor may use the tools like light or a lens to check the internal portion of the eye including the health of the retina, optic nerve, and lens. For external testing, cornea, iris, eyelids, and conjunctiva are tested. A slit lamp is the most common tool used for the testing. It comes with a chin rest so that the doctor can look at the eye lens while the patient is relaxing. The eye examination includes a proper checkup of the eye. It may take a longer time as multiple tests are included in the whole procedure. The test may range from simplest to the most complex depending on the visual capacity of the eye.

  4. Color Blindness Test According to some survey, sixty out of a hundred people are colorblind. It’s nothing but the difficulty between recognizing a few shades such as red, and green colors. It’s commonly found in males. Every child is checked for colorblindness as it is included in a regular eye exam in Ottawa. In case, the doctor doesn’t opt for the test, you can ask for it.

  5. Refraction Test • The doctor prefers this test when you are suspected of needing glasses. In simple words, poor vision leads to the refraction test. From using the Snellen chart to using a light beam, every possible procedure is used to find the exact number. You just have to read the words (from bigger to smaller) listed on the chart. The doctor may opt for the eye drops to relax the focus of the eyes. It gives the exact measure of the eyesight. This way you get the right glasses.
