A visual acuity test is a key part of a complete eye exam, designed to assess the clarity and sharpness of a person's vision. During this test, a patient is asked to read letters or numbers displayed on a chart from a specific distance, typically the Snellen chart. The test measures how well each eye can see at various distances and is used to determine if corrective lenses, such as glasses or contact lenses, are needed. Visual acuity is usually expressed as a fraction, such as 20/20, with the first number indicating the test distance and the second representing the distance at which a person with normal vision can read the same line of the chart. A result worse than 20/20 may indicate refractive errors, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, which can be corrected with appropriate eyewear or other treatments. Regular visual acuity testing is essential for detecting vision problems early and maintaining overall eye health.
A retinal examination is a crucial part of an eye checkup that allows eye care professionals to assess the health of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye responsible for vision.
The doctor may use tools like a ophthalmoscope or fundus camera to capture images of the retina, enabling a detailed evaluation.
