In-Office Remote Eye Exam

What Is an In-Office Remote Eye Exam?

A remote eye exam is a comprehensive eye exam performed with the support of digital diagnostic equipment and real-time video consultation with a licensed optometrist.

At eyecarecenter, this exam takes place inside your local eye center, where trained technicians perform pre-testing while the doctor evaluates results remotely.

Remote eye exams are designed to:

  • Evaluate your vision

  • Update or issue a prescription

  • Screen for potential eye health concerns

The doctor reviews your results, discusses recommendations, and answers your questions during the video consultation. 

How a Remote Eye Exam Works

Your remote eye exam follows a structured process designed to ensure accurate results 
and comfortable care.

This technician will communicate with you through high-definition video conferencing and remotely control the phoropter and determine the right prescription.

Step 1: Pre-Testing With an On-Site Technician

A eyecarecenter technician performs several diagnostic tests including: vision testing, orneal measurements, eye pressure testing, digital imaging of the eyes

These measurements help the doctor evaluate your vision and eye health.

Step 2: Video Consultation With a Licensed Optometrist

Once pre-testing is complete, you will meet with a eyecarecenter doctor through secure high-definition video.

The doctor will review your eye health history, evaluate the test results and images, ask questions about your vision amd review and adjust your prescription.

You will speak directly with the doctor just as you would during an in-person exam.

If the doctor observes signs of a medical eye condition, they may recommend an in-person evaluation for further testing.

How It Works

An on-site technician will pre-test your current prescription, measure your corneas, check your eye pressure, and capture detailed eye images. You’ll then meet with a licensed optometrist through a high-definition video consultation, receiving a comprehensive eye exam in under 30 minutes. An on-site team member will support you throughout the remote exam
