Request AppointmentEye Exam Frequency Recommendations
The American Optometric Association recommends the following guidelines for eye exam frequency based on your age and specific risk factors:
- Adults (18–64 years old): Every 2 to 4 years, depending on your individual risk factors and overall health.
- Adults (over 65 years old): Every 1 to 2 years, as the risk of developing eye diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration increases with age.
It’s important to note that these are just general guidelines. Dr. Grifasi will determine the appropriate frequency for your individual needs based on your specific situation.

A Detailed Medical History Review
We’ll discuss your overall health, family history of eye conditions, and any current medications you’re taking.
Visual Acuity Test
This familiar test measures your ability to see objects at various distances, determining if you need an updated prescription for glasses or contact lenses.
Eye Health Evaluation
We’ll use specialized equipment to examine the health of your eyes, including:
- Refraction Testing: This measures the focusing power of your eyes to determine your refractive error (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism).
- Ocular Motility Assessment: We’ll evaluate how well your eyes move together and track objects.
- Tonometry: This test measures your intraocular pressure (IOP) to screen for glaucoma.
Slit-Lamp Examination: This allows us to examine the front and back of your eye in detail, looking for signs of cataracts, macular degeneration, and other potential issues.
Discussion & Recommendations
We’ll discuss your individual needs and recommend the best course of action, whether it’s updating your prescription, prescribing eye medication, or referring you to a specialist.
