Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams analyze eye health and vision function through patient history reviews, vision testing, eye movement assessments, and eye health evaluations. We use advanced diagnostic technology to detect conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration while determining optimal vision correction needs. The exams include visual acuity tests, refraction analysis, and functional vision testing to ensure accurate diagnoses and treatment plans.
Contact Lenses
We offer comprehensive contact lens evaluations and fittings for various types including daily wear, extended wear, and specialty lenses for astigmatism. Our optometrists assess refractive errors and lifestyle needs to recommend appropriate lens options while providing proper fitting and follow-up care. We also offer cosmetic lenses and specialty contact solutions for complex vision conditions like keratoconus.
Pediatric Exams
Our pediatric eye exams focus on early detection of vision problems in children aged 5+. We specialize in myopia management using MiSight lenses and treat conditions like amblyopia and strabismus through vision therapy. The exams include functional vision testing and developmental assessments to ensure proper visual development and academic performance.
Computer Vision Treatment
We diagnose and treat computer vision syndrome through specialized eye exams measuring visual acuity, refraction, and eye coordination. Treatment options include computer-specific glasses, ergonomic recommendations, and vision therapy exercises. Our approach addresses symptoms like eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision caused by prolonged digital screen use.
Myopia Management
Our myopia management program uses evidence-based approaches including MiSight contact lenses to slow progression in children. We combine vision therapy, environmental modifications, and regular monitoring to control this progressive eye condition. The program addresses genetic and environmental risk factors while providing ongoing support for patients and families.
