What to Expect
Comprehensive eye exams are a key aspect of your overall healthcare plan.
Your vision and ocular health can change over time. Regular eye exams ensure you can see clearly and comfortably and detect early signs of eye diseases or other visual conditions.
Your optometrist can detect over 270 systemic and chronic health conditions with eye exams, even if these conditions develop without showing symptoms.

During your Eye Exam
Visual Acuity
The visual acuity test measures how clearly you can see.
When you think of an eye exam, you’ll likely picture the visual acuity test. Your optometrist asks you to read different-sized letters off a chart to determine your ability to read and see clearly at varying distances.
Each eye is tested separately.
Refraction Assessment
The refraction assessment detects and measures refractive errors.
A refractive error occurs when light entering your eyes doesn’t focus properly on your retina. These errors can create issues with your vision, such as blurring or distortion. Some examples of refractive errors include myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
We use the refraction assessment to determine your prescription.
Retinal Exam
The retinal examination can be conducted in a few ways, including fundus photography or dilation. With a retinal exam, we analyze the health of your eyes.
We can see your retina, your optic disc, and the blood vessels of your eye, as well as other internal structures. This exam helps us evaluate your ocular health and detect any signs of disease.
Eye Muscle Test
The eye muscle test evaluates the muscles responsible for eye movement.
You’ll follow a point while we look at your eyes. We look for signs of poor control or coordination. If we notice any abnormalities in your muscle movements, we can help you find treatments to strengthen your eyes and visual system.
Tonometry
The tonometry portion of your eye exam measures the fluid pressure inside your eyes (intraocular pressure).
This text can detect early signs of glaucoma, a disease that can damage the optic nerve. You might remember going to your optometrist as a child and getting a puff of air in each eye. This is a form of tonometry.
We also offer applanation tonometry and iCare tonometry.
How to Prepare
There are a few things you can do to prepare for your appointment to make sure you have the best possible experience with us:
- Ensure your patient forms have been properly filled out & submitted before your appointment.
- Confirm your $35 reservation fee is paid (without it, we won’t be able to see you).
- Think about any questions or concerns about your eye health—we want to make sure you leave with peace of mind.
If you’re a first-time patient or need more information, please contact us before your appointment. We can help you prepare and give you any information you need.

Our Google Reviews
This is the one Dr. Appointment I do not dread going to. Everyone at Caroline Eye Doctors are so friendly and attentive. They even take the time out to share knowledge and offer suggestions that suit your best needs.

I left this office in complete disbelief at the kindness that was shown to me and my son. My two year old was definitely difficult to examine. But Olivia, and Dr. Overberg were two of the kindest people I have ever met! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my son! Dr. Overberg was relentless to get my son’s examination, and the correct prescription for his glasses perfectly. I cannot even imagine how difficult that is with a squirming two year old! We will be forever grateful!

I am so appreciative of the care I receive from Carolina Eye Doctors. The staff is efficient and kind and Dr. Garcia is 100% the best! In all my years, this is hands down the best care I’ve ever had!

On my latest visit, I saw Dr. Overberg for an eye exam. I had previously seen Dr. Garcia, but our schedules didn’t align with this go-around, so I decided to see Dr. Overberg. She was fantastic! She was so thorough and professional. You really can’t miss this office…everyone from the doctors to the front desk is phenomenal! Great service, professional exam, detailed follow through, and a wonderful choice of glasses! I’m a big fan!
