In store we cover more than reading letters. We check vision quality, comfort symptoms and offer optional checks for contrast and colour perception. Online screening tools give some información, but they do not replace an in-person assessment with us.

Revisión por un óptico cualificado is offered as preventive care. Online checks give useful información but do not replace a professional assessment. We explain next steps clearly, whether that means prescription changes, lens options or further checks for capacidad visual.
What to expect during our in-store vision tests
We guide you through every step of our in-store checks so you know what will happen from arrival to results. We keep the process practical and clear, and we explain findings in plain terms.
Visual acuity and refraction: checking your capacidad visual
We assess agudeza visual using letters, numbers or Landolt rings as a straightforward measure of your visión. This shows how well you detect fine detail at standard distances.
Next, we perform subjective refraction with a trial frame and a series of lenses. Your responses help us find the lens power that gives the best clarity and comfort for daily tasks.
Binocular checks: how we assess how your eyes work together
We evaluate binocular interaction and screen for heterophoria. This reveals coordination issues that can cause strain or variable clarity during the day.
Why headaches and evening eye fatigue can be early warning signs
Headaches or end-of-day fatigue often point to uncorrected ametropias rather than inevitable tiredness. We treat these symptoms as relevant to your ocular salud and explain practical next steps.
What we tell you next: clear results, recommended correction or follow-up, and when to rebook if symptoms change.
| Stage | Method | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Visual acuity | Letters / numbers / Landolt rings | Detail resolution at distance |
| Subjective refraction | Trial frame with lens choices | Comfortable, usable correction |
| Binocular assessment | Cover tests and alignment checks | Coordination and heterophoria detection |
When should we schedule your eye check-up in Spain?
A clear schedule for revisión removes guesswork and makes preventive salud straightforward.
For adults without known problems we recommend: see the table below for intervals. If you have symptoms or a medical history, come sooner so we can adapt the appointment type.
Recommended frequency for adults by age
| Age group | Interval | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 20–39 | At least three times | Catch gradual changes early |
| 40–64 | Every 2–3 years | Age-related changes often start |
| 65+ | Every 1–2 years | Higher risk of ocular conditions |
Children’s check timing
First exam by 2–3.5 years, another before starting school and then every two years. Early detection supports learning and confidence.
Higher-priority cases
Premature infants or a family history of squint or serious visión problems need checks at 6–12 months and ongoing reviews.
«Preventive appointments save time and reduce risk.»
Next step: If you match any category, call us to arrange the right prueba timing rather than waiting until your visión feels worse. Teléfono 971 89 72 14; Dirección Carrer de Pollèntia, 9, 07400 Alcúdia, Illes Balears.
Eye test for contrast sensitivity and what it can reveal about eye health
Contrast sensitivity measures the practical capacidad to tell an object from its background. It matters for comfortable, confident daily visión, especially in low light or when screens are poorly adjusted.
What contrast sensitivity is and why it affects comfort and safety
Contraste is different from sharpness. You may read letters clearly yet lose detail on dim faces or faded signs.
This reduces confidence when driving at night, reading menus in low light, or spotting a step on uneven ground.
How reduced contrast perception can be linked to glaucoma changes
We use a simple test and clinical checks to measure contrast performance and note patterns that may suggest early glaucoma.
Reduced contrast can precede other signs, so we treat changes as an invitation to monitor and, if needed, arrange further assessment.
- We explain what the result means for day-to-day tasks.
- We recommend follow‑up if contrast is lower than expected.
- If you have concerns, book a professional prueba rather than only changing lighting or screen settings.
«Early detection of contrast loss can guide effective monitoring and care.»

Colour vision and daltonism tests: how we assess percepción and colores
Understanding how you perceive colours helps us give clear, useful guidance for work and travel. We explain what a colour vision deficiency means in plain terms and what it may change in daily life.
What colour vision deficiency means day to day
Colour differences can affect clothing choices, reading colour-coded charts and recognising signals. Reduced percepción can also change how comfortable you feel in poor light.
Genetics and typical red‑green difficulty
Daltonismo is usually genetic and is more frequent in men. The common form affects red–green discrimination and can make braking lights or coloured signage less distinct in fog.
Professional methods we use
Our structured tests give reliable, repeatable results so you get useful información, not guesswork.
- Practical advice on compensation and safety strategies.
- Guidance on work, driving and whether family checks are advised.
| Tool | Purpose | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Pseudoisochromatic plates | Screening | Detects common colour deficiencies |
| Farnsworth arrangement | Grading | Measures hue discrimination |
| Nagel anomaloscope | Precise classification | Quantifies red–green anomalies |
Additional checks we may recommend: astigmatism and visual field (vista)
When clarity varies by direction or you see distortions, extra checks help find the cause. We decide on add-ons based on symptoms and your day‑to‑day needs rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all plan.
Astigmatism screening: what the line test can indicate
Astigmatismo is a refractive defect with two focal lines. It can make visión appear smeared or stretched.
Simple line-based screening shows if lines look uneven in sharpness or tone. Such differences are an early sign worth following up.
Symptoms include blurred visión, eye strain, headaches and difficulty driving at night. Correction is usually with spectacles or contact lenses tailored to your lifestyle.
Central visual field checks using the Amsler grid concept
We use a grid concept to screen the central field. At roughly 30 cm, wavy lines, breaks or missing patches suggest central field changes that need attention.
Screen-based versions vary with distance and size, so an in-person review is more reliable when something feels off.
| Check | Method | What it reveals |
|---|---|---|
| Line screening | Orientation lines | Signs of astigmatism: uneven sharpness |
| Central field | Amsler-style grid | Distortions, scotomas or breaks |
| Follow-up | Refraction & imaging | Confirm cause & correction plan |
