What to Expect at Your Eye Examination

A comprehensive eye examination at Noranda Optometrist is far more than a simple vision check. Our optometrists assess your full eye health, screening for conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, and diabetic eye changes, many of which have no early symptoms.

What you should know?

  • What the exam includes: visual acuity, refraction, eye pressure, fundus assessment, OCT imaging 

  • How long it takes: approximately 30 minutes for a comprehensive exam 

  • When to book: every 12 months for most adults; annually if you have diabetes, glaucoma risk, or a family history of eye disease 

  • Bulk billing: available for eligible Medicare patients 

  • Bring your current glasses and a list of any medications

OrthoK

Ortho-K is a fitted medical device, so the fee reflects the mapping, the custom lens design and the follow up care rather than the lenses alone. The tier your child falls into is confirmed at the suitability assessment.

Four ways to slow myopia

There is no single best treatment. The right choice depends on your child's age, how quickly the prescription is changing, and what they will realistically stick to. Here is how the options compare.

See what a difference treatment makes

Move the sliders to reflect your child's situation and see how their prescription is likely to track over the next few years, with and without myopia management. Nothing you enter is saved or sent anywhere.
