How long should an eye test take?
It depends on the patient, but a young, healthy person with no apparent problems should take around 20 minutes.
Someone older, perhaps with high blood pressure, diabetes, glaucoma or other ailments can take much longer.
Your optician will determine what clinical tests are needed to provide the correct information for new spectacles or contact lenses; if necessary, they might refer the patient for a medical opinion.
