Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams assess all aspects of vision and ocular health, including visual acuity, peripheral vision, and eye coordination. Using advanced diagnostic tools like optical coherence tomography, we detect early signs of conditions such as glaucoma and macular degeneration. These exams are essential for maintaining optimal eye health and preventing vision deterioration, especially for patients with diabetes or family histories of eye disease.
Vision Therapy
Vision therapy improves eye coordination, focusing, and tracking through customized exercises. This treatment benefits children with learning-related vision issues and adults with eye strain or post-concussion visual disturbances. Our supervised in-office sessions use prisms, filters, and electronic targets to enhance binocular vision and reduce symptoms like double vision or reading difficulties.
Pediatric Eyecare
We specialize in early detection and management of childhood vision problems, including amblyopia and strabismus. Our child-friendly exams use age-appropriate tests like Lea Gratings to assess visual acuity. Regular check-ups starting at age 3 ensure timely intervention for developmental issues, preventing long-term academic or social challenges caused by undiagnosed vision disorders.
Dry Eyes Treatment
Our dry eye treatments range from artificial tears and prescription anti-inflammatories to advanced procedures like LipiFlow thermal pulsation. We address underlying causes such as meibomian gland dysfunction, offering personalized solutions like scleral lenses or autologous blood serum drops for severe cases. These interventions restore tear film stability and alleviate discomfort like burning or blurred vision.
Myopia Management
We offer evidence-based myopia control strategies, including orthokeratology lenses and dual-focus contact lenses. These treatments slow axial elongation of the eye in children, reducing risks of high myopia complications like retinal detachment. Regular monitoring with axial length measurements ensures treatment efficacy, with options tailored to each child's lifestyle and progression rate.
