General Eye Examination

General eye examination is a routine set of assessments done by an ophthalmologist or other specialists, in collaboration with optometrists to examine your eyes. There are different types of general eyes checks which assess different aspects of your vision; it's advised that everyone should have periodic general eye checks to look at their eye health and see if anything needs attention.

To maintain healthy eyes, you should get a complete eye examination once in your twenties and twice in your thirties. Children need to have an eye examination by a general practitioner before they can start pre-school and then follow up every 1-2 years.

We encourage every child and teenager to ensure they receive an eye exam at the least twice a year. The longer you wait, the higher risk of developing serious vision problems later on.

When should my childs eyes be examined?

Most physicians prescribe vision tests as part of a child's medical examination. They may refer a child to see an eye doctor (aka ophthalmologist) if there is any visible sign of a vision problem.


Pediatricians recommend the first eye test for children to take place in hospital - as part of their routine post-treatment checkup. A pediatrician or physician will also check your children's vision during a routine well-child exam, usually at two, four and six months of age. Later amblyopia and alignment screenings should take place between the ages of three-years-old and four years old and then yearly thereafter.

When should an adults eyes be examined?

It's important to monitor your eyesight by getting an eye exam. For adults, this should be done every three-five years or whenever a noticeable change occurs. Young adults (ages 20 - 39) should have their eyes examined once a year.


Adults aged (40-64 year olds) should have their eyes examined every two-four years.

Seniors (over 65 years of ages) should have their eyes examined every year to two years



High risk adults include:


with diabetes

with glaucoma or strong family history of glaucoma

What is visual acuity?

The Acuity of the eye is the measure of its ability to identify and distinguish the minutest details and shapes in symbolic or written form at a distance of 20 feet. This measurement is typically given in decimal form. The top number refers to the distance in feet, while the bottom number denotes the visual distance. So, perfect vision is 20/20.

What is Myopia ?

Myopia is often called "short-sightedness" or "near-sighted." But it can be corrected with good contact lenses, eyeglasses, or surgical techniques.

What is Hyperopia ?

Hyperopia is often referred to as "long-sightedness" or "far-sighted". Generally, hyperopia is when the eye is too short for the focal point. (ie an emmetropic eye or eye requiring no optical correction) or this is because the eye's power of sight is weaker than the distance. The focus is correctly adjusted using a "plus" lens power or convex lens.
