VillageOPTICIAN - Optician Services

In HyMy Village, you will be served by the clinic of the Optometry Sight Center and the VillageOPTICIAN store. At us you can undergo a comprehensive eye examination and determine a prescription for glasses or contact lenses. We also have modern eye imaging equipment.

• The vision examination begins with a comprehensive interview
• Examination include the determination of refractive error, the evaluation of eye interaction, and the inspection of eye structures
• You can book an appointment for an assistive device fitting, where we will map out the magnifying aids that are best suited to your vision. Our selection also includes electronic magnifying devices.

We also offer optometry teaching clinic appointments (150 min) for children and clients with eye disease, visual impairment or otherwise challenging vision. At the teaching clinic, we offer a very comprehensive examination that takes into account the client's special needs. Ask for more information about the clinic in the store or by email. Clinic appointments are available throughout the semester.

During the eye examination, eye drops that dilate the pupils may be used, which allows for a more detailed examination and assessment of the fundus. Please note that eye drops will impair near vision and make it difficult to drive for a few hours. In addition, in sunny or bright weather, you should bring sunglasses to reduce glare. You can also always request that eye drops not be used during the eye examination.

If an abnormal finding suggesting an eye disease is found in an eye examination or imaging, we will refer you to an ophthalmologist, and you will receive a written assessment of the eye findings from us.

What does the Optometrist do?

Optometrist is a healthcare expert who specializes in vision and eye health. Optometrist studies the function and structures of the eyes with various tests and imaging. Based on the results, the client is recommended an eye correction that meets his needs. Typically, optometrist is sought when vision-related symptoms, such as impaired farsightedness or nearsightedness, headaches, or when a person wants contact lenses alongside the glasses.
