What to Expect in a Digital Eye Exam | SpecSMART Eye Clinic Ikoyi

By Dr. Deborah Oparaji (OD)

Digital eye exams combine cutting-edge technology with professional expertise to provide accurate, comfortable, and efficient vision care. At SpecSMART Eye Clinic Ikoyi, we utilize advanced digital tools to thoroughly assess your eye health and update your prescription with precision.

 

                     

Step 1: Digital Pre-screening

You begin with pre-tests using state-of-the-art equipment, such as:

  • Automated refraction to measure your basic prescription

  • Tonometry to check eye pressure for glaucoma screening

  • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and retinal imaging for detailed views of your retina

  • Visual field tests to evaluate peripheral vision

These tests help build a baseline of your eye health before the full examination.

Step 2: Comprehensive Eye Examination

A senior optometrist conducts a detailed eye exam including:

  • Personalized refraction tests using digital phoropters to fine-tune your prescription

  • Slit-lamp examination to inspect eye structures for diseases or abnormalities

  • Evaluation of binocular vision and eye muscle function

Your optometrist will discuss findings clearly and customize recommendations based on your lifestyle and needs.

Step 3: Eyewear Selection and On-site Fitting

If you require glasses, choose from over 950 frames for men, women, and children, ranging from budget-friendly to designer styles. Our opticians guide you on the best frame fit and lens options such as single vision, bifocals, or specialized coatings.

Many standard lenses are glazed on-site and ready within 20 minutes for immediate use.
