When you suddenly notice blurry vision, eye strain from constant screen use, or have simply put off your annual checkup, quick and advanced eye care is crucial. In Glendale Heights, delays between symptom and treatment can impact not just how you see, but how you live and work every day. At iDoctor, we make it easy with detailed eye exam appointments available the same or next day, right off Army Trail Road—just minutes from Bloomingdale, Glen Ellyn, and Carol Stream.

If you care about clarity, comfort, and quick turnaround, our technology and expertise set us apart.

What Is a Same- or Next-Day Eye Exam with Advanced Imaging?

Our eye exam Glendale Heights uses state-of-the-art technology in a relaxing, personal setting. Whether you schedule for routine vision correction, a new prescription, or medical eye health screening, our approach is thorough, modern, and always designed around your needs. Here’s what patients can expect during their visit—and what makes our approach different:

• Digital phoropters for quick, precise vision measurements (no more manual dials—your comfort and prescription accuracy come first).
• Ultra-widefield Optomap retinal imaging for a 200° view of the retina, helping detect early signs of diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, and macular degeneration—usually without dilation and in less than a second. There’s a small additional fee ($39) for this advanced test, but the detail and peace of mind are worth it.
• iCare tonometer for gentle, non-invasive eye pressure checks to catch glaucoma early without the air puff many patients dread.
• Visual field testing to monitor peripheral vision, screen for neurological or glaucoma-related issues, and create a baseline for long-term eye health.
• Health and lifestyle review: Your current prescription, medication list, and everyday vision needs are all considered. We encourage you to bring glasses, contacts, and a list of medications for the most tailored recommendations.

Testing is conducted by Dr. Saher Sayed, O.D., M.P.H., M.B.A., and our support team, using the most recent diagnostic standards. Every step is explained, and results are reviewed in a way that empowers you to understand your own eye health. If you wear contact lenses, specialized exams and fittings are available—see our previous post Why Your Contact Lens Rx Isn’t the Same as Your Glasses Prescription for more.
