Eye Care
Most people go about their daily lives without realizing that their eyesight is not OK. But then they get their first pair of corrective lenses, and everything from fine print to street signs becomes clearer.
Improving your eyesight is essential — approximately 11 million Americans over the age of 12 need vision correction — but it is only one of several reasons to get your eyes checked by an optometrist at Grand Central Optical. Regular eye exams in NYC are also crucial for detecting eye problems early on and protecting your vision. Cataracts, computer vision syndrome, eye infections, eye injuries, floaters, glaucoma, headaches, itching and burning, pink eye, and seasonal allergies are more common eye-related problems.
Eye conditions are pretty common and can go undetected for long periods; some show no symptoms at first. However, a comprehensive eye exam performed by one of our New York State licensed optometrists must detect eye conditions in their early stages when treatment to prevent permanent vision loss is the most effective.
Our eye exams are split into two parts. We begin by taking a computerized reading of your vision to test visual acuity (sharpness), depth perception, eye alignment, and eye movement. Then we perform a detailed exam to determine the health of your eyes and the accuracy of your prescription. When the eye exam is done, we go over the results with you. This detailed exam will discuss your eye health and whether you need corrective lenses or a prescription adjustment (if you already wear glasses). Of course, we will also answer any questions you may have about your vision.
At Grand Central Optical, we are continually refining our eye exams with the most up-to-date technology and techniques to ensure you get the most accurate analysis of your eye health. So call us, stop by our store, or contact us online to book your eye exam in Midtown today.
