A Typical Eye Exam at Cornerstone Eye Care

We opened Cornerstone Eye Care in the Princeton, NJ area in 2018 with the hope of bringing a new and refreshing eye care option to our patients. I used to be employed at a few corporate chain locations and was never fully satisfied with the total experience I was able to offer my patients. Too often I felt rushed, having to cut off conversations to move along the eye exam so I could get to the rest of my schedule. Now that we are almost 7 years in I thought it would be good to look back to see if we were able to stay true to our goals.

Thankfully, I believe we have been able to provide the Princeton area with this more patient centric approach. A typical eye exam at Cornerstone starts with zero wait time. It’s always been a sticking point of my own when I would go for a doctor’s appointment. So I made it a priority and now go as far as guarantee you’ll be seen on time or your eye exam will be free!

As soon as you walk in I will take you back and perform the pre-testing myself. Every eye exam includes a digital retinal photo and scan of your retina and optic nerve to rule out glaucoma and other potential eye problems. Afterwards we’ll go right to the exam to refine your eyeglasses prescription and fit the perfect contact lenses if needed. I’ll do a very quick eye pressure check, then a full scan of the front surface your eye to check for dry eye or eye allergies and the exam portion is complete!

I block an hour off for all my patients , so we will have plenty of time to discuss the exam and answer all the questions you might have! And if you want eyeglasses? I do that too! I’ve actually really enjoyed helping my patients find the perfect pair of eyeglasses that fits great and looks great.

We really set out to do eye care different and we hope after you come you really feel like it was a one of a kind eye care experience. We’re here to serve the Princeton, NJ area and we hope you’ll give us a chance.
