    Gem Clinic and eye tests 
    10/18/2015 at 8:26 PM
    I am scheduled to go to the Gem Clinic in Wpg for 3 eye tests. They are visual field, optical coherence tomography (oct) and a pachymetry. It says to bring a driver and sunglasses. I'm just wondering if anyone who has had these done could tell me what my vision will be like after the tests. I had planned on doing some shopping but now am thinking that might not be a good choice!

    depends on you, i didnt find them bad at all and did feel i could drive after, they dilate your eyes is the main things so things will be bright for a while, thats why they say you need sunglasses, other then that the tests are hard because they are touching your eyes but they dont hurt, just hard to let them do thoes things lol

    I looked at their website and it explained the tests (duh, should have looked there first lol) and other than the freezing eye drops which lasts for 10 mins, I think shopping should be fine! Gotta get my costco fix while I'm there  
     
    I'm usually the Winnipeg driver but my husband will drive after the appt. I think I'm more scared about that than the tests!!! Lol
