Eye Testing + Diagnostics

At BRIGHT Eyes, we offer advanced diagnostic testing to provide objective measurements of your eye health, visual function, ocular surface, and wellness factors—whenever you need it.

Eye Testing + Diagnostics

These services may be performed as part of a specialty evaluation, for monitoring, by referral, or as a standalone testing visit when specific measurements are needed without further evaluation.

Best for concerns such as:

  • Patients needing specific diagnostic measurements or baseline data in a timely manner

  • Screening for early signs of eye disease and monitoring changes in eye health over time

  • Evaluating dry eye, corneal, eyelid, or visual function concerns

  • Tracking progress with treatment or lifestyle changes

  • Providing objective testing when requested by another provider who is managing your eye condition or needing a referral for surgery

Eye Testing + Diagnostics

  • Color Vision

    Standardized Ishihara test through calibrated VR optics for more precise results. The Ishihara test flags the presence of red-green color deficiency and can suggest the depth of the deficit through the response pattern.

    Best for:

    • Congential color blindness

    • Childhood development/school screening

    • Optic nerve disease

    • Age-related eye disease monitoring (glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration)

    • Career or licensing requirements (aviation pilots/FAA, military service, railroad operators, and law enforcement)

  • Corneal Topography

    Advanced corneal mapping to measure the shape, curvature, and surface characteristics of the cornea. This testing provides detailed information used for specialty contact lens fitting, corneal health monitoring, and surgical evaluations.

    Best for:

    • Keratoconus or irregular corneas

    • Scleral lens fitting

    • Ortho-k evaluation and monitoring

    • Corneal changes after surgery

    • Astigmatism or unexplained visual changes

  • Visual Field (Perimetry) Test

    Visual field test through calibrated VR optics for more precise results. A visual field test measures your central and side (peripheral) vision, mapping out exact blind spots or areas of vision loss.

    Best for:

    • Ptosis/eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) eligibility

    • High-risk medication (plaquenil) monitoring

    • Optic nerve (glaucoma) or retinal (macular degeneration) disease monitoring

    • Dry eye diagnosis support

    • Monitoring treatment response

    • Understanding tear quality

  • Ocular Inflammation (MMP-9) Test

    A point-of-care test that detects inflammatory markers associated with ocular surface disease.
