Your Vision. Your Future.

Is your child having a hard time seeing the board in class?

Do you struggle to read fine-print in books and menus?

Regular comprehensive eye exams involve a series of tests that enable your Sweetwater eye doctor to check your eye health and vision. This type of eye exam can only be performed by an eye doctor, and shouldn’t be confused with the vision screenings given in schools or other non-professional settings.

Having regular comprehensive eye exams is crucial when it comes to protecting your eyes from sight-threatening diseases, and ensuring that your optical prescription is up-to-date.

A comprehensive eye exam can also reveal signs of a general health condition like diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol.

Why Is It Important to Get Your Eyes Tested Regularly?

Comprehensive eye exams are an important part of maintaining great vision and eye health for the entire family.

During your eye exam, your eye doctor will check for any refractive errors or visual skill deficiencies that may hinder development or learning, and diagnose, manage, and treat eye diseases and conditions, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or macular degeneration that can cause severe vision loss in adults.

Many of these sight-robbing conditions show little to no symptoms until they’ve already caused learning difficulties, significant damage to the eye, and/or irreversible vision loss. Routine eye exams ensure early diagnosis and treatment of these and other conditions.

What to Expect From Your Eye Exam

  • Glasses/contact lens prescription updates

    We'll provide you with an updated prescription so that you can see clearly. Some people require a new prescription every year, whereas others only need a new prescription every 2-3 years.

  • Evaluating your child’s vision for learning

    Conditions such as strabismus and amblyopia, and visual skill deficiencies such as convergence insufficiency can negatively impact your child’s learning.

  • Diagnosis & treatment of eye diseases

    Eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy may show no symptoms until it’s too late. The earlier the treatment, the more effective the outcome.

  • Rule out signs of systemic diseases

    Common systemic diseases such as diabetes and stroke can first be detected in the eyes as part of a comprehensive eye exam.

Comprehensive Eye Exams FAQs

Is a comprehensive eye exam the same as a vision screening?

No. Vision screenings like the one performed for children in school or at optical-only stores only check for 20/20 vision. They do not check for the presence of sight-threatening eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration or cataracts. They also do not check for visual skill deficiencies such as problems with visual tracking or processing. Comprehensive eye exams are more thorough and use advanced equipment to evaluate your vision and eye health.

How often should I get an eye exam?

Eye doctors usually recommend that you come in for a comprehensive eye exam at least once a year. This ensures that your glasses or contact lens prescription stays up to date and that signs and symptoms of developing eye conditions are caught early before they cause lasting damage.

When should I bring my child in for their first comprehensive eye exam?

A child’s first eye exam should take place at age 6 months. It’s important not to delay eye exams for young infants and children as some early eye problems can affect vision for life. Detecting vision problems early can keep a minor issue from becoming something serious (and more challenging to treat).

The office called several days after my visit to see how I was doing because of an issue I had with ... my eyes. Dr.Murray has been amazing: kind, professional -ethical—He did not charge me for services that I did not need. I heartily recommend this group. The BEST in the area!

I've been seeing Dr. Murray for around 25 years. My husband and I both see Dr. Murray. I don’t kno... w if our son still goes to PVS. I saw Dr. Pippo before Dr. Murray. Both doctors are great. Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. Susie is fantastic! I used to wear special contacts and always an excellent job on them. The frames and lenses are high quality. Glasses come in fairly quickly. I also feel like family. I enjoy my yearly exams because that's when I visit everyone. Not too many of the original staff left. Some have been there so long they've retired. Loved Doreen, Ann, Phil, and Minnie when they worked there.

They are quite possibly the friendliest and most helpful vision services staff I've encountered in a... ll my years of needing vision correction. I'm glad I took a chance with them and I look forward to doing further business with them in the future.

Service was amazing! Loved my glasses. Dr.Reed was super nice and helpful. Definitely recommend to a... nyone looking for a new pair of glasses!!

My family of 5 came to this practice because it was recommended by others. I carry on the recommenda... tion. While every practice and profession will have those who felt their level of service inferior, the employees have really worked with my family. We all five have corrective lenses, including both glasses and contacts. They worked to find the correct contacts for me when I needed bifocals. Dr. Pipo straightforwardly explained what I would be gaining or losing with bifocal vision in contacts. He engaged my then preteen sons in conversation to make them feel comfortable. We have been with this practice nearly 8 years. Again, while no practice is perfect every day as no one is, this practice strives to serve, from the front desk to doctors (we’ve seen three different ones) to opticians.

Outstanding service,staff is out of this world.Great prices. I've been coming here for over 35 year... s!. When you walk in you're treated like family. Well worth the trip if you need to get glasses or contacts!

From the moment I walked in (for my initial appointment), I felt welcomed and well cared for. From t... he receptionists, to the technicians, the optometrist and the optician... all were focused on my needs. The technician who worked with me was new (only been there a month), so there were some bumps in that regard; but she knew what needed to be done and was looked in on regularly by her supervisor. Throughout my time with Dr. Pipo, I felt exceedingly reassured that the health of my eyes and vision were of the utmost importance to him. On a number of occasions, he told me that if I had any issues with my eyes: "floaters," stinging or dry eyes, or if there were changes in my vision, not to hesitate to call the office. I'm looking forward to being a regular patient here for many years to come!

Every interaction I've had with every staff member has been truly exceptional! Everyone, from the r... eceptionists and schedulers to the doctors and techs, show that they genuinely care about their patients! Thank you all for being so kind, caring, attentive, and good at your jobs!
