What to expect when you visit Heights Eye Center:

  1. We will ask you to fill out a specialized questionnaire designed to help diagnose those who have BVD.
  2. You will be asked to complete a detailed Health History form.
  3. We will perform an eye exam to determine whether you need to correct for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and/or astigmatism (a common imperfection in the eye’s curvature).
  4. We will perform a specialized exam (NeuroVisual Evaluation) to determine if visual misalignment is present.
