Most insurance plans accepted
Routine Eye Exams Matter
Clear vision is only one part of healthy eyes. Subtle eye health changes can go unnoticed, even when your vision still feels clear. Our exam looks at both your vision and your eye health, giving your doctor a more complete picture of how your eyes are doing.
Our eye doctors offer annual eye exams at our offices in Oakton and Herndon.
What's Included in the Exam
More Time With Your Doctor
Your visit should be efficient, but your care should not feel rushed. Our exams are scheduled with more time built in, giving you time to ask questions and your doctor time to answer them.
That extra time gives your doctor room to examine your eyes thoroughly and explain what the findings mean for you.
A More Complete Eye Exam
Our Advanced Technology helps us measure your eyes more accurately, capture detailed images, and save those scans over time. That means your doctor can compare today’s results with past visits and look for subtle changes that may not be obvious from one exam alone.
Our technology also makes the exam more comfortable. There’s no traditional air puff, and retinal imaging often allows us to examine the back of the eye without routine dilation drops.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a yearly eye exam important?
Your vision and eye health can change gradually, often before you notice symptoms. A yearly eye exam gives your doctor a chance to compare findings over time, look for early signs of eye disease, and help you understand what your eyes need now.
Can I get glasses after my eye exam?
Yes. After your exam, our trained optical consultants can help you choose from our curated frame collection and advanced lens options. We focus on eyewear that feels clear, comfortable, and thoughtfully fitted to your prescription, your face, and the way you use your vision.
How long will I be there for?
We recommend budgeting about 60 minutes for your visit. You may want a little extra time if you like to browse frames slowly, compare lens options, or ask for a few opinions before making the final call.
Will I need dilation drops during my eye exam?
Not typically. Our wellness screening allows us to capture detailed images of the back of the eye without routine dilation drops for most patients. If dilation is medically needed, your doctor will explain why and talk you through it.
Do you accept vision insurance?
Yes. Solaire Vision is in network with most major vision insurance plans. Before your exam begins, our team reviews your expected copays and benefits with you, so you have a clearer understanding of how your plan may apply to your eye exam, glasses, contact lenses, or lens upgrades.
Do you see patients outside Herndon and Oakton?
Yes. Solaire Vision sees patients at our Herndon and Oakton locations, and we regularly care for patients from Reston, Fairfax, Vienna, Tysons, Chantilly, and surrounding Northern Virginia communities.
