Overview

A computerized eye exam, also known as digital refraction, utilizes advanced technology to assess your vision and eye health. It’s often used in conjunction with a traditional eye exam performed by an optometrist or ophthalmologist. Here’s a breakdown of what a computerized eye exam typically involves: Pre-exam procedures:

  • Medical history: Similar to a traditional exam, you’ll be asked about your medical history, any medications you’re taking, and your family’s eye health.
  • Preliminary tests: You may undergo basic vision tests like visual acuity measurement using an eye chart.

Visual Acuity Test

This test measures how well you can see at various distances. In computerized versions, you may be presented with letters or symbols on a screen, and you’ll indicate which ones you can see clearly. The test can determine if you have nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.

Autorefractors and Aberrometers

These devices automatically determine your eyeglass prescription by analyzing how light is reflected off the retina. Autorefractors provide a quick estimate of your prescription, and aberrometers can detect higher-order aberrations that may affect vision quality.

Visual Field Test

A computerized visual field test maps out your peripheral vision. You’ll typically focus on a central point while lights or stimuli appear in your peripheral vision. This test helps diagnose conditions like glaucoma, optic nerve damage, and neurological disorders affecting vision.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT is a non-invasive imaging test that uses light waves to take cross-sectional pictures of the retina. It provides detailed images of the layers of the retina, optic nerve, and other structures, aiding in the diagnosis and management of conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma.

Corneal Topography

This test creates a detailed map of the curvature of the cornea, helping to diagnose conditions like keratoconus, corneal irregularities, and astigmatism. Computerized corneal topographers use various techniques such as Placido disc reflection or Scheimpflug imaging.

Color Vision Testing

Computerized color vision tests assess your ability to distinguish colors accurately. These tests are often used to diagnose color blindness or color vision deficiencies, which can affect daily activities and certain occupations.
