Best Answer

I would bring your regular glasses and sun glasses.

AnswerNo, but you won't be able to see for a while, anyway. AnswerI just got back from an eye exam. The optometrist told me to wear my contacts, but throw them away when I take them out for the night, and put on a new pair in the morning. He said sometimes the drops could contaminate the lenses and re-dilate my eyes in the morning.

I'm nearsighted, not sure if it's different for people that are farsighted.

What goes on during an eye exam?

The first thing that happens is they will ask you about your current needs for coming in: new glasses, contacts, vision problems and so forth. Then they will perform a visual acutiy test, that is the test with the board with the letters on it, at distance and at close range. Then an external examination of the eye itself and the surrounding area. Then more tests to gauge pupil responsem, eye alignment, and a test that can detect early signs of glaucoma. During an eye exam, they check you eyes vision and see if you can spell out numbers or letters from a distance with both eyes as the letter/numbers get lower in size.

This exam is not a pass or fail exam. A contact lens exam is just your optometrist measuring your eye and how far you can see with contacts. That is when the left eye and right eye measurements come in. Usually the optometrist gives you a trial pair to make sure there is no irritation and no damages to the inner eye before prescribing contacts (usually a week)
