Optometric Examination: What it is and Who can have it

The optometric examination is a non-invasive check that assesses an individual’s visual ability.

It is performed by an optometrist, a professional specialized in detecting and correcting visual defects through the use of lenses.

During the examination, the optometrist performs various tests to assess near and far vision, contrast sensitivity, color perception, and hand-eye coordination.

At Bottega di Sguardi– Dentro, in via del Parione 54r, and Bottega di Sguardi in via Marconi 19fr, you will find staff specialized in optics and optometry who will help you find the most suitable personalized solution for your visual needs.

How a Vision Check is Performed

A typical vision check begins with an anamnesis, during which the professional gathers information about the patient’s medical and visual history.

This is followed by specific tests such as reading optometric charts to assess visual acuity and the possible presence of myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.

At our two ‘Bottega di Sguardi’ boutiques, we have the most advanced instruments to perform an even more precise check.

When to Have an Eye Exam

It is advisable to have an eye exam regularly, even in the absence of obvious symptoms.

Adults should have a check-up at least every two years, while children should do so annually to prevent visual disturbances that could affect their learning.

Furthermore, it is important to have an optometric examination in case of recurring headaches, difficulty reading or seeing from a distance, eye strain, or any change in vision.

How to Know When to Wear Prescription Glasses

Some signs can indicate the need for prescription glasses.

Difficulty reading, blurry images from a distance or up close, eye strain after using computers or mobile devices for prolonged periods are all warning signs.

Problems distinguishing fine details or adapting to changes in brightness can also suggest the need for a check-up.
