Prescription of corrective glasses

Specialist vision examination and accurate glasses prescription

Good vision is essential for daily comfort, work, driving, and ordinary functioning. Worsening vision can cause eye strain, headaches, concentration problems, and reduced quality of life. Properly selected glasses correction helps restore sharp and comfortable vision at every age.

At the ophthalmology clinic at Poliklinika Mlynska dolina in Bratislava, we provide specialist vision assessment and accurate prescription of glasses based on the patient's individual needs. Based on a complete eye examination, we determine the right diopters and recommend the most suitable solution for the best possible vision.

When is a vision examination needed?

We recommend examination and glasses prescription for problems such as:

• blurred vision,
• worse distance or near vision,
• frequent headaches,
• eye strain,
• burning or stinging eyes,
• difficulty reading,
• eye strain during computer work,
• worse night vision,
• the need to replace old glasses.

Regular vision checks are also important as prevention, especially after the age of 40.

How is glasses correction prescribed?

Complete eye examination

A glasses prescription is based on a specialist examination that includes:

• visual acuity testing,
• diopter measurement,
• eye examination,
• assessment of vision quality,
• evaluation of eye health.

The goal is to provide the most accurate vision correction for maximum comfort.

Accurate diopter measurement

We use modern diagnostic devices, including an automatic refractometer, to measure diopters.

The examination allows precise identification of:

• myopia,
• hyperopia,
• astigmatism,
• age-related changes in vision.

The ophthalmologist then refines the result according to the patient's individual vision and needs.

What glasses can we prescribe?

Based on the results, we may recommend:

• distance glasses,
• reading glasses,
• multifocal glasses,
• computer glasses,
• everyday glasses,
• special correction for astigmatism.

Proper correction significantly improves quality of life and reduces eye strain.

Most common refractive errors

Myopia

The patient sees well at near distance but worse at distance.

Typical symptoms:

• blurred distant objects,
• difficulty driving,
• squinting.

Hyperopia

Patients may have problems:

• when reading,
• during near work,
• with eye strain,
• with headaches.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism causes distorted or blurred vision due to irregular corneal curvature.

It may present with:

• blurred image,
• eye strain,
• difficulty focusing sharply,
• headaches.

Why should proper vision correction not be underestimated?

Incorrect or outdated glasses may cause:

• eye strain,
• headaches,
• reduced concentration,
• difficulty at work or while driving,
• excessive visual strain.

Regular eye checkups help maintain clear and comfortable vision.

An individual approach to every patient

Each patient has different visual needs based on:

• age,
• workload,
• lifestyle,
• type of refractive error.

Our specialists will help you choose the most suitable glasses correction for daily comfort and optimal vision.
