Who this list is for
This checklist is designed for employees who have been referred for a professional eye exam after not passing an employer vision screening. If your workplace requires specific visual abilities or you use safety eyewear, this list will help you prepare for your appointment and ensure you bring everything the provider and your employer might need.
How to use this list
Start by gathering your photo ID and vision insurance card, if you have one. Bring your eye exam appointment confirmation and the actual results from your workplace vision screening. If your employer gave you a referral letter or form, pack that as well. Collect your current eyeglasses and safety glasses if you wear them on the job. If you use contact lenses, bring your lenses and case. Make sure to include a copy of your job description or a brief summary of the visual tasks you perform. Jot down notes about any trouble you have with screens, distance, or close work. Add your current medication and allergy lists, any previous vision prescriptions, and a payment card or copay method.
Common mistakes
People often forget to bring their workplace screening results or employer referral form, which can delay the process. Skipping your current glasses or contacts can make it harder for the provider to assess changes in your vision. Some workers overlook bringing a summary of their job’s visual requirements, but this helps the eye doctor recommend the best solutions for your role.
What is on this list
You’ll find real items like your photo ID, vision insurance card, appointment confirmation, workplace screening results, referral letter, current eyeglasses, safety glasses, contact lenses and case, job description, and notes on any visual difficulties.

Cross off anything you already have or don’t need, but double-check that you have all employer-required documents.
