Services
Childrens Eye Exams
Our comprehensive pediatric exams detect vision problems like strabismus and amblyopia early. Using child-friendly techniques, we assess visual acuity, binocular vision, and eye health to ensure proper developmental progress. Parents receive clear guidance for maintaining ocular health and addressing corrective needs.
Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation
Specialized vision therapy for patients recovering from brain injuries or strokes. We evaluate eye-brain coordination through functional visual tasks, creating personalized rehabilitation plans to restore lost visual processing abilities. This service addresses symptoms like double vision and spatial disorientation through targeted exercises.
Diabetic Eye Exams
Annual comprehensive exams for diabetic patients detect retinopathy, macular edema, and cataracts. Using advanced imaging technology, we monitor retinal blood vessel health and intraocular pressure. Early detection allows timely referrals for laser treatments or surgical interventions to prevent vision loss.
Dry Eye Therapy
Custom treatment plans address chronic dry eye symptoms through advanced diagnostics. We identify underlying causes like meibomian gland dysfunction and prescribe therapies including artificial tears, prescription medications, and in-office procedures to improve tear production and quality.
Vision Therapy
Structured programs improve visual-motor skills and eye coordination for children and adults. Using specialized tools and exercises, we treat conditions like convergence insufficiency and visual processing disorders. Sessions enhance reading ability, depth perception, and overall visual efficiency through progressive skill development.
