Regular eye exams are an invaluable tool in maintaining healthy eyes by detecting and preventing disease. Some diseases develop slowly without causing pain or vision loss. Early detection of any problems can reduce the risk of further harm and allow for a choice of treatment options. Part of your exam includes the following procedures: Slit lamp examinations, dilated eye examinations, refraction for glasses and contact lenses and glaucoma pressure testing as well as a series of other computerized tests to determine the health of your eyes.
We take pride in maintaining the vision of our younger patients in an environment that is lighthearted and fun. We want to insure the good sight, vision, and eye health for the rest of your child's life and take a preventative approach to his/her general health and eye health. We will work with your child's primary care physician to help keep his/her eyes healthy. It is important that all of our pediatric patients have healthy and efficient visual systems to help make visual demands of learning in school easier and fun.
Thanks to the advances in optical technology, almost everyone is a candidate for contact lens use. This includes patients with astigmatism and also those who prefer bifocal or multifocal lenses. We offer a comprehensive array of contact lenses to suit each individual patient's needs. We offer daily disposables, extended wear soft lenses and gas permeable contact lenses. We provide lens services for difficult to fit patients as well.
Patients with diabetes are more likely to develop eye problems including retinopathy, cataracts, glaucoma and double vision. It is essential that diabetics monitor and control their blood sugar levels under the care of their primary care physician. Over time, diabetes can affect the blood circulation to your eye and can cause retinopathy. Diabetics can significantly reduce eye complications with annual eye exams to evaluate and monitor your retinal health.
For those patients needing prescription eyeglasses, we offer a complete optical department. We carry a wide selection of affordable frames, as well as high fashion designer eyewear. Our experienced staff will help you select a pair of glasses to perfectly fit your style and budget.
