Vision Test


The vision test is one of the simplest yet most important components of the eye exam. In order for eye doctors to compare results, it’s always done at a standardized distance of twenty feet. Old-fashioned offices had rooms that were twenty feet long. Today, mirrors are used to reflect the image so the room can be shorter; but the image still looks like it is twenty feet away. The charts are standardized too and doctors around the world use the same basic format.
