Comprehensive Eye Checkups

A full eye examination is not the same as a vision test. Reading letters off a chart shows how sharp your sight is — it says almost nothing about the health of the eye behind it.

Examination room at Dr. Pasricha Eye Hospital, Karnal
Overview

The appointment that finds what you did not come in for

Glaucoma, early diabetic retinopathy and many retinal conditions are all perfectly compatible with 6/6 vision. A comprehensive examination checks both how well you see and whether the eye itself is healthy.

We measure your prescription on a digital autorefractor and then refine it subjectively, check eye pressure, examine the front of the eye on the slit lamp, and dilate to examine the retina where indicated.

Our optical counter is inside the hospital, so your prescription goes straight from the consulting room to the counter without a second trip.

What's Included

Your care at a glance

45–90 minutes

Allow two to three hours if your retina needs examining under dilation.

Newborn to elderly

Reliable methods exist for children too young to read letters.

In-house optical

Frames fitted on site — though you are free to take your prescription elsewhere.

How often you should come

Children around age 3 and again before starting school. Adults under 40 every two years. Adults over 40 annually, when glaucoma and cataract both become more likely. Anyone with diabetes, at least once a year without exception.

What to bring

Your current spectacles or contact lenses, any previous prescriptions or reports, a list of medicines you take including eye drops, and your insurance or TPA card. Bring someone with you if dilation is likely.

What the examination covers

  • Visual acuity at distance and near, each eye separately.
  • Your exact spectacle power, measured and then refined.
  • Eye pressure — the key screening check for glaucoma.
  • Cornea, lens and retina, with eye movements and alignment.

Registration is ₹300 and stays valid for 7 days. An emergency consultation fee of ₹700 applies outside regular OPD hours (Mon–Sat, 9 AM – 7 PM).

FAQ

Questions about comprehensive eye checkups

Yes, particularly after 40. Glaucoma and early diabetic retinopathy cause serious damage long before you notice any change in vision.

No — only when there is a reason, such as diabetes, retinal symptoms or high myopia. We will tell you in advance so you can arrange to be accompanied.

Not at all. Your prescription is yours and we will hand it over to use wherever you like. The counter is for convenience, not obligation.

Yes. There are well-established methods for assessing vision in very young and non-verbal children that need no reading or verbal answers.
