What to Expect

During your appointment, you will receive a complete eye exam that goes beyond keeping your prescription up to date. It also includes evaluating your overall vision health to help detect early signs of serious eye conditions.

Make sure to bring:

  •  Your current prescription.
  •  Your current eyewear (glasses or contacts).
  •  If you have insurance, please bring your card. Read more about the insurance plans.
  •  If you have not been vaccinated, we ask that you wear a mask in-store for the safety of others.

Here’s what to expect:

Eye exams are provided by Physicians Eyecare Group, a national network of affiliated independent eye doctors and clinical staff that provide on-site and remote clinical services within My Eyelab. Physicians Eyecare Group will oversee every aspect of your eye examination and eye health check up, which goes well beyond your prescription.

Diagnostic Testing – Our trained technician will administer a series of clinical measurements to provide the doctor a more comprehensive assessment of your eye, allowing screening for serious eye conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. With these test results, the doctor will evaluate your entire visual system from the corneal surface at the front to the retinal tissue and optic nerve tissue in the back of your eye.

Slit Lamp evaluation – Performed as needed, this assessment will evaluate the health of the front of the eye, where cataracts develop.
