Optometric Assessment
Optometric Assessment is a general eye examination conducted by an optometrist. It assesses vision clarity, eye alignment, focusing ability, and overall eye health. The assessment may include a review of medical history, vision testing, refraction to determine prescription needs, and screening for eye diseases.
​
The optometrist may also assess the impact of visual issues on daily functioning and recommend corrective lenses or visual aids as needed.
