Is an Eye Test Loud? Are There Any Loud Clicks or Bangs?

My long vision is bad so I need glasses and an eye test done.

However due to my tinnitus and sensitive ears does anything with the test make loud noise?

I just ask because during that test they have your face right up against that thing and was wondering if there’s any loudish clicks or bangs etc.... I usually wear earplugs going out but wouldn’t think I’d need to for this.

 

I had an eye test about 1 month before T and i can‘t remember any noise. I had to do a reaction test where you need to spot small light points, eye pressure and normal vision check. I don‘t think you need earplugs. But maybe ask before the tests

 

only if they do the air puff test, which they normally dont do. But ask to make sure.

 

That is the eye pressure test right? It’s a very short burst of air into the eyes but that wasn‘t loud as far as i remember...

But if you have doubts you could always wear plugs.

 

That's not very loud and I wouldn't advise that you reject that test. It is to detect if glaucoma is present.

It's a standard test in England at every eye test.
