Comprehensive Eye Examinations

What we mean by a comprehensive eye examination is a detailed and complete evaluation of the health of each area of the eye as well as thorough vision testing and prescription assessment. We explain the purpose of each test as it is performed. We want to help you understand all your eye health and vision treatment options. During the exam, pressure in the eye is measured to see if there are any early signs of glaucoma. In addition, the back of the eye, including the retina, macula, and ocular nerve are examined for signs of disease and problems such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal holes/tears or detachments. Observation of the back of the eye is performed either through dilation of the pupils or by taking a retinal scan. The doctor performs refractive testing to determine the optical lens strength required for the clearest possible vision. Binocular vision skills are tested as well; this is to ensure that the eyes work together properly as a unit. These skills include depth perception, eye muscle coordination and the ability to change focus from near to far objects. Pupil responses are tested, and the cornea and lens are checked for general health and the possible development of cataracts.

It is important to have a comprehensive eye exam every 12 months.

Getting your prescription checked by your doctor is the best way to keep your eyewear current and your eyes in good health. Eye diseases such as glaucoma display no symptoms until full onset has occurred; this is a disease that can be prevented through detection and maintenance. In addition, prescription changes do not necessarily reveal themselves through secondary symptoms. Changes in the amount of myopia (near-sightedness) or hyperopia (far-sightedness) occurring can be masked by the eye muscles straining to accommodate for the change. This does not always reveal itself by way of headaches or noticeable eye strain.

Dr. Gregory Breaux, O.D.

Dr. Breaux grew up as a military brat and traveled extensively as a child before graduating from high school in Okinawa, Japan. He completed his undergraduate studies in 2001 at Houston Baptist University where he earned a double major in Biology and Psychology. He then went on to the University of Houston College of Optometry where he earned his Doctorate in 2006. During this time, he was honored with the Swietzer Award for Excellence in low vision and rehabilitation.

Dr. Breaux’s internship specialized in primary care and hospital-based optometry with an emphasis on glaucoma, ocular pathology, trauma and surgical co-management. Much of his training occurred in East Texas. His rotations included practicing full-scope optometry at the Golden Eye Clinic in Center, Golden Eye Associates in Carthage and the Lehmann Eye Center in Nacogdoches. He completed his internship at Evans Army Community Hospital in Fort Carson, Colorado. While in school, Dr. Breaux provided eye care as a Harris County Hospital District Volunteer during Hurricane Katrina.

He is currently a member of the Texas Optometric Association and the Harris County Optometric Society.
