Expert Eye Care
Eye Exams
Done Right.
Comprehensive and contact lens exams with the latest diagnostic technology — and the personal attention you deserve.
More than a vision check.
A window to your health.
Your eyes are the only place in the body where blood vessels and nerves can be observed directly — without surgery. A comprehensive eye exam with Dr. Payne isn't just about updating your prescription. It's a full evaluation of your eye health and an early warning system for conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and neurological disease.
With over 30 years of clinical experience and the latest diagnostic technology, Dr. Payne delivers exams that are thorough, unhurried, and genuinely informative.
Our Services
Three Types of
Expert Exams.
Comprehensive Eye Exam
A thorough evaluation of your complete eye health — from visual acuity and refraction to retinal health, eye pressure, and early detection of conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease.
What's Included
Contact Lens Exam & Fitting
A specialized exam designed to find the perfect contact lens for your eyes, lifestyle, and prescription. Dr. Payne evaluates corneal curvature, tear film quality, and lens fit to ensure all-day comfort and optimal vision.
What's Included
LASIK Evaluation & Co-Management
Considering LASIK or another refractive surgery? Dr. Payne provides thorough pre-operative evaluations to determine candidacy and partners with leading Las Vegas LASIK surgeons to ensure seamless care. Following your procedure, she provides comprehensive post-operative monitoring to protect your results and long-term eye health.
What's Included
Diagnostic Technology
The Latest Tools
for Clearer Answers.
Digital Retinal Imaging
High-resolution photography of your retina allows Dr. Payne to detect and monitor changes over time — without dilation in most cases.
Corneal Topography
Detailed 3D mapping of your corneal surface — essential for contact lens fitting, keratoconus screening, and refractive surgery co-management.
Rabin Cone Color Vision Testing
Advanced color vision testing using the Rabin Cone Contrast Test — the most sensitive clinical tool available for detecting color vision deficiencies, monitoring cone cell health, and identifying early signs of retinal and neurological disease.
Meibomian Gland Imaging
Infrared imaging of the oil-producing glands in your eyelids — the gold standard for diagnosing the root cause of dry eye disease.
Visual Field Testing
Comprehensive peripheral vision testing to detect early signs of glaucoma, neurological conditions, and other vision-threatening diseases.
Binocular Vision Analysis
Specialized testing to identify Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD) — a common but frequently missed cause of headaches, dizziness, and reading difficulties.
Glaucoma Screening
No Puff.
No Anxiety.
We measure your eye pressure using the iCare tonometer — a modern, rebound-based device that measures intraocular pressure with a gentle, barely perceptible touch. No air puff. No numbing drops. No bracing yourself.
Eye pressure testing is a critical part of every comprehensive exam — elevated intraocular pressure is one of the primary risk factors for glaucoma, which can cause irreversible vision loss if left undetected. With the iCare tonometer, there is no reason to dread this part of your exam.
The iCare is especially well-suited for patients who have anxiety around the traditional air-puff test, children, and patients with sensitive eyes. Accurate, fast, and completely comfortable.
No Air Puff
The iCare uses rebound technology — a tiny probe makes a brief, gentle contact with the cornea. Patients rarely feel anything at all.
No Numbing Drops Required
Unlike Goldmann applanation tonometry, the iCare requires no anesthetic drops, making the process faster and more comfortable.
Clinically Accurate
The iCare tonometer is a validated, FDA-cleared device used in clinical practice worldwide and produces results comparable to traditional tonometry.
Ideal for All Ages
Comfortable enough for children and anxious patients — no need to hold still for an air blast or tolerate numbing drops.

Common Questions
Everything You
Need to Know.
How often should I have an eye exam?
Most adults should have a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years. If you have diabetes, a family history of glaucoma, or wear contact lenses, annual exams are recommended.
Do I need a separate exam for contact lenses?
Yes — a contact lens exam includes additional testing beyond a standard eye exam, including corneal measurements and a lens fitting evaluation. Your glasses prescription cannot be used directly for contacts.
Will my eyes be dilated?
Dr. Payne uses advanced digital retinal imaging that often eliminates the need for dilation. When dilation is clinically necessary, she will discuss it with you beforehand.
How long does an exam take?
A comprehensive exam typically takes 60–90 minutes, including time for frame selection with our opticians. Contact lens exams run 45–60 minutes.
Do you accept vision insurance?
We accept most major vision insurance plans. Please call our office to verify your specific coverage before your appointment.
Can children have exams at Trendsetter Eyewear?
Absolutely. Dr. Payne sees patients of all ages and recommends children's first eye exam by age 3, and annually once they begin school.
