What Sets a Personalized Exam and Eyewear Fitting at iDoctor Apart?

We approach every patient individually, looking at your lifestyle, vision needs, and even your aesthetic preferences. Our detailed process combines experience, advanced technology, and attentive boutique service. Here’s what to expect:

  1. Getting to Know You: From the moment you arrive, our receptionist and optometric technicians welcome you and gather health details. We discuss your vision complaints, daily routines (like remote work, reading, or driving to Glen Ellyn), and any history of eye issues in your family.
  2. Pre-Exam Tech Screening: Our staff conducts preliminary vision checks, using digital charts to quickly spot problems.
  3. Digital Refraction for Perfect Clarity: Dr. Saher Sayed uses state-of-the-art digital phoropters that make “1 or 2?” easier and more comfortable. These tools provide more accurate prescriptions and less eye fatigue.
  4. Detailed Eye Health Assessment:
    • Gentle, contact-free pressure checks with our tonometer—important for watching for glaucoma.
    • Ultra-widefield retinal imaging (200-degree view in seconds with no dilation for most)—great for early detection of diabetic retinopathy or macular degeneration.
    • Visual field testing for subtle vision changes.
    • Assessment of issues like dry eye, eye allergies, or sudden vision changes should they arise.
  5. Doctor Collaboration & Education: Dr. Sayed reviews your results using images and models, leaving time for your questions. Whether it’s understanding your prescription or learning how to keep your eyes healthy if you work long hours on screens, we want you to leave feeling empowered.
  6. Eyewear Experience: Boutique Selection and Experts: If you need glasses, opticians like Brianna, certified ABOC-AC, use Optikam technology to digitally measure your unique facial features and frame fit. We stock designer frames from Cartier, Gucci, Prada, Oliver Peoples, Ray-Ban, and many more—ensuring style matched with comfort.
    For contacts, we offer all lens types and provide trial pairs with personalized follow-up. (You can also learn more about contact lens exams at iDoctor.)
