From ৳800, paid in cash at the door.

What the hour looks like

A visit is 60 minutes and runs in the same order every time.

  1. Arrival

    The optometrist calls when they set off, and again from your gate. They carry photo identification.

  2. Your eyes so far

    Headaches, night driving, an old pair that stopped working, any medication. Have your current glasses to hand.

  3. The test

    Distance and near vision, then lens after lens in a trial frame until the chart is sharp. Nothing touches your eye.

  4. The prescription

    Written into your account before the optometrist leaves. It is yours to take to any optician.

What comes through the door

The same equipment that sits on a bench in an optical shop, in a case on a motorbike.

  • Trial lens setThe full box — spherical, cylindrical and prism lenses — the same one a consulting room uses.
  • Trial frameAdjustable, so the lenses sit exactly where your own glasses would.
  • Distance chartHung at a measured distance in your own room — six metres, or a mirror if the room is short.
  • RetinoscopeA light, to read how your eye focuses before you are asked a single question.
  • PD ruleMeasures the distance between your pupils — the number a lens is centred on.

Who knocks

The same two people, every time. You are told who is coming when you book, not when they arrive.
