Your Vision. Your Future.

Is your child having a hard time seeing the board in class?

Do you struggle to read fine-print in books and menus?

Regular comprehensive eye exams involve a series of tests that enable your Northeast Colorado Springs eye doctor to check your eye health and vision. This type of eye exam can only be performed by an eye doctor, and shouldn’t be confused with the vision screenings given in schools or other non-professional settings.

Having regular comprehensive eye exams is crucial when it comes to protecting your eyes from sight-threatening diseases, and ensuring that your optical prescription is up-to-date.

A comprehensive eye exam can also reveal signs of a general health condition like diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol.

Why Is It Important to Get Your Eyes Tested Regularly?

Comprehensive eye exams are an important part of maintaining great vision and eye health for the entire family.

During your eye exam, your eye doctor will check for any refractive errors or visual skill deficiencies that may hinder development or learning, and diagnose, manage, and treat eye diseases and conditions, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or macular degeneration that can cause severe vision loss in adults.

Many of these sight-robbing conditions show little to no symptoms until they’ve already caused learning difficulties, significant damage to the eye, and/or irreversible vision loss. Routine eye exams ensure early diagnosis and treatment of these and other conditions.


What to Expect From Your Eye Exam

  • Glasses/contact lens prescription updates

    We'll provide you with an updated prescription so that you can see clearly. Some people require a new prescription every year, whereas others only need a new prescription every 2-3 years.

  • Evaluating your child’s vision for learning

    Conditions such as strabismus and amblyopia, and visual skill deficiencies such as convergence insufficiency can negatively impact your child’s learning.

  • Diagnosis & treatment of eye diseases

    Eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy may show no symptoms until it’s too late. The earlier the treatment, the more effective the outcome.

  • Rule out signs of systemic diseases

    Common systemic diseases such as diabetes and stroke can first be detected in the eyes as part of a comprehensive eye exam.

Bree and Jodi are wonderful and wise and I am so grateful for the service they provide.

I’m from out of State & needed to get a rubber nose pad for my sunglasses. Rodney at the front des... k immediately helped & repaired my glasses! Such a great friendly young man, and very professional! Thank you for being open the day before Thanksgiving!

I had a very pleasant experience here. Demitri, a respectful, well-versed young woman, very pleasant... in demeanor, checked me in. During the exam, Dr. O was very gracious to answer my questions comprehensively. He further explained information relevant to my circumstances. Which was helpful to me. Finally, I ended my visit with Rodney, an upbeat, cool cat with groovy glasses. He straightened my sunglasses, and cleaned them for me. I didn't even buy them there! A very likable guy. Without reservation I recommend this business.

They are so professional and kind. I had made a mistake by booking my appointment a little earlier i... n the year than my insurance allowed - but Brie was kindly able to get me some sample contact lenses to get me through AND she texted me to remind me when the correct time came around to order. I chose this practice kind of randomly and I’m so glad I did!

Excellent service and eyewear which includes lenses. Wondered about the warranty though. Manufacture... r of lenses and frames already offer a year warranty so what exactly are you paying for?
- Sep. 07, 2023
The staff was very well knowledgeable, and very friendly from walking into the door to finally meet ... the Doctor.
- Aug. 22, 2023
Great location. The staff is very easy to work with.
- Aug. 14, 2023
We always get good care here. They explain our insurance very well and are up front about all of the... costs. I started coming here after my regular eye doctor refused to give me my prescription, forced me to order contacts through him, and then only gave me six months’ worth instead of year, claiming that “you can actually wear monthlies for two months.” At first I was wary about going to a walk-in type place, but they actually caught a rare condition with my daughter’s eye during a routine check up.

I didn't feel rush by the staff and felt they were very professorial. It was a relaxing appointment... ; and they answered every question I asked them ( which were numerous ); fully and courteously.

On time, courteous, great customer service. I love my new glasses.
- Jun. 07, 2023
Staff is always great and welcoming. They take time to make sure the kids feel comfortable and don�... �t rush them when picking glasses frames.

The staff was so friendly Amen helpful at this location. Highly recommend them ! Thank you all for a... great experience
- May. 02, 2023
Highly recommend! I was visiting from out of town and had an unexpected extended stay. Without havin... g enough contacts on hand, ABBA’s was super friendly, helpful, and quick to help me out with some trial contacts to tie me over with my faxed RX from my hometown eye doctor. So grateful for how accommodating they were!

Comprehensive Eye Exams FAQs

Is a comprehensive eye exam the same as a vision screening?

No. Vision screenings like the one performed for children in school or at optical-only stores only check for 20/20 vision. They do not check for the presence of sight-threatening eye diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration or cataracts. They also do not check for visual skill deficiencies such as problems with visual tracking or processing. Comprehensive eye exams are more thorough and use advanced equipment to evaluate your vision and eye health.

How often should I get an eye exam?

Eye doctors usually recommend that you come in for a comprehensive eye exam at least once a year. This ensures that your glasses or contact lens prescription stays up to date and that signs and symptoms of developing eye conditions are caught early before they cause lasting damage.

When should I bring my child in for their first comprehensive eye exam?

A child’s first eye exam should take place at age 6 months. It’s important not to delay eye exams for young infants and children as some early eye problems can affect vision for life. Detecting vision problems early can keep a minor issue from becoming something serious (and more challenging to treat).
