Why Do Eye Exams Matter, Even if Your Vision Feels Fine?

It’s easy to put off an eye exam when nothing feels “wrong.” But many eye conditions don’t cause noticeable symptoms until permanent damage has already occurred.

Our comprehensive exams check your vision and screen for issues like glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and more so you can stay ahead of problems, not react to them.

What’s Included in a Comprehensive Eye Exam at Southampton Optiks?

Every exam includes a full refraction (to check your prescription) and a detailed eye health assessment. We use digital retinal imaging and OCT scans to evaluate your retina, optic nerve, and macula, without dilation in many cases. From dry eye symptoms to sudden prescription changes, we take time to listen, explain, and guide.

Advanced Tools, Familiar Faces, & Straightforward Care

We’ve invested in modern diagnostic tools because they help us catch issues early, and make your visit smoother. But we keep the process human: clear explanations, no pressure, no surprise fees. Tools like our Maestro2 OCT scanner help us track subtle changes over time, especially for patients with diabetes or a family history of eye disease.

We See Grandparents, Grandkids & Everyone in Between

Whether it’s your child’s first checkup or your own annual visit, our team adapts each exam to the person in the chair. Children as young as 3 are welcome, and we care for seniors managing age-related changes with just as much focus. No rushed visits. No corporate shuffle. Just care that makes sense for your life.

Annual Eye Exams Can Protect Your Sight for Decades

We typically recommend annual eye exams for most patients, with more frequent care for those with diabetes, high prescriptions, or eye health concerns. If you’re not sure when to schedule, call us, we’re happy to help you figure out what’s best for your age, lifestyle, and medical history.
