Eye Examinations
As an independent optician at Malpas Eyecare in the heart of the village of Malpas, we take pride in providing personalized eye care. Here’s how we approach eye tests:
- Warm Welcome: When you step into our practice, expect a friendly smile. We want you to feel at ease.
- Listening Intently: We listen carefully to your concerns. Whether it’s blurry vision, eye strain, or any other issue, we’re here to understand your unique experience.
- Getting to Know You: Let’s chat about your lifestyle. Do you spend hours on screens, love outdoor activities, or enjoy reading? This helps us tailor our recommendations just for you.
- Eye Health Chat: Before diving into tests, we discuss your eye health history. Any family history of eye conditions? Any recent changes?
- The Eye Test Journey:
- Letter Chart: We start with the classic letter chart. We’ll explain what 20/20 vision means.
- Pupil Check: Using a light, we examine your pupils’ response. It’s like a mini flashlight party!
- Cover Test: Focus on an object while we cover one eye. We check eye alignment.
- Refraction: “Which is clearer, 1 or 2?” We fine-tune your prescription.
- Health Check: We look into your eyes with the most up to date equipment’s like our new OCT.
- Results and Discussion: We share the findings. If there’s a prescription change, we explain it thoroughly. Let’s discuss lifestyle tweaks—like blue light glasses for screen warriors.
- Empathy: If you’re nervous, we’ll reassure you. If you’re excited about new glasses, we’ll celebrate with you.
Remember, every eye is unique, and we’re here to guide you toward clearer vision and healthier eyes.
