11. They will want to check my vision
They will cover one of my eyes so they can check the other eye on its own

12. If I can read letters they will show me a letter chart
I will read the letters I can see if I cannot read some of them that is OK

13. If I do not know the name of the letters I can point to them on a card

The Orthoptist will write everything down and tell me and whoever is with me what will happen next.
