St. Louis Eye Exams

At Erker’s, our highly experienced eye doctors will assess all aspects of your eye health, beginning with an evaluation of your family’s eye history. This better informs our optometrists about the genetic conditions and risk factors to which you may be susceptible.

Our eye doctor will then use a slit lamp microscopy exam to check your eye health. They will also perform a tonometry test to determine if you are at risk for glaucoma, and after a pupil dilation, they’ll check the blood vessels in your retinas and look for signs of swelling.

Finally, we will perform a vision refraction test to determine your eyeglasses prescription.

When you buy your glasses with us, our passionate and knowledgeable opticians search through our entire collection of over 6,000 designer glasses to help you find your perfect frames. However, that’s only half of the equation: the functionality of your eyewear depends on the accuracy of your vision prescription.

Your prescription can change with time, and even the smallest variation in your prescription can affect the clarity of your sight. Our experienced optometrists take exceptional care in determining an accurate prescription for each eye so that your frames can function just as well as they look.

An annual eye exam is the opportunity to determine if your eyes are performing at their very best with your current prescription, and if they aren’t, we’re here to rectify the issue.
