Eye Exams
Your eyes reveal more than just vision problems. They’re windows to your overall health. Our eye exams detect glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and signs of high blood pressure or diabetes before symptoms appear.

Once we’re done, you get to walk out with electronic prescriptions and a clear understanding of your eye health in just 45-60 minutes.
Vision Exam
Struggling with blurry vision or outdated prescriptions? Our vision exam pinpoints exactly what your eyes need for crystal-clear sight. We test for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism using precision refraction technology.
We’ve perfected a streamlined approach that gets you results fast without the hassle of dilation drops. Rim Optical uses Optomap® digital imaging to examine your retina while our refraction tests determine your perfect prescription strength. Whether you’re 8 or 80, our customized eye care delivers digital prescriptions you can access anytime.
Glasses Exam
Getting glasses that actually work for your lifestyle starts with understanding how you see the world. Our glasses exam goes beyond basic vision testing to evaluate your daily visual demands, from computer work to driving at night.
The examination process includes detailed refraction testing and digital frame measurements to ensure optimal lens positioning. Rim Optical conducts thorough assessments of your visual habits and preferences during each glasses exam session. Our comprehensive eye care approach means you’ll receive personalized recommendations based on your specific vision challenges and lifestyle requirements.
Contact Lens Exam
Skip the guesswork and get contacts that actually feel comfortable all day long. Our contact lens exam measures your corneal curvature, eye moisture levels, and unique eye shape to find your perfect match.

Our extensive trial inventory means you can try dailies, multifocals, or specialty lenses before committing to a prescription.

Blurry Vision
Stop squinting and start seeing clearly again with targeted solutions for your vision problems. Blurry vision could mean you need new glasses, have eye strain, or face serious conditions requiring immediate care. Our advanced diagnostics quickly determine whether your issue needs simple correction or urgent medical attention.
Rim Optical uses comprehensive testing, including refraction analysis, retinal imaging, and pressure checks, to identify the exact cause. We screen for glaucoma, cataracts, and other conditions that compromise your sight. Most patients get clear answers and personalized eye care solutions the same day they visit.
Ocular Disease Management
Early detection saves sight, and we catch eye diseases before they steal your vision permanently. Our ocular disease management targets glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and cataracts using cutting-edge screening technology.
