Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams assess vision acuity, eye health, and systemic conditions affecting ocular wellness. Using advanced diagnostics, we detect early signs of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Ideal for patients of all ages seeking accurate prescriptions and preventive care.
Myopia Management
We offer FDA-approved solutions like MiSight daily disposable lenses and Ortho-K nighttime lenses to slow myopia progression in children. Customized treatment plans address genetic and lifestyle factors contributing to nearsightedness, reducing long-term eye health risks.
Ortho-K Contact Lenses
Paragon CRT lenses reshape the cornea overnight, providing clear daytime vision without glasses. This non-surgical option benefits active children and adults while potentially slowing myopia progression. Requires precise fitting by our certified specialists.
Low Vision Services
For patients with vision loss from macular degeneration or glaucoma, we prescribe magnifiers, telescopes, and adaptive tools. Our doctors specialize in maximizing functional vision and quality of life through personalized low-vision evaluations and follow-up care.
Corneal Topography
Using Medmont technology, we create digital corneal maps to diagnose irregularities like keratoconus and fit specialty contact lenses. This painless, non-invasive test ensures precise lens prescriptions and monitors corneal health for dry eye and surgical candidates.
