Services
Comprehensive Eye Exam
Our comprehensive eye exams evaluate vision acuity, eye health, and systemic health indicators. Using advanced diagnostic tools like retinal imaging, we detect early signs of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The exam includes refraction testing to determine corrective lens prescriptions while assessing depth perception, color vision, and ocular muscle function. Our optometrists review patients' medical histories to provide holistic care tailored to individual needs.
Contact Lens Exam
This specialized exam determines optimal contact lens parameters through corneal topography and tear film analysis. We offer fittings for soft, gas permeable, and specialty lenses including scleral and orthokeratology designs. The process includes trial lens assessments and follow-up evaluations to ensure proper fit, comfort, and visual clarity while maintaining ocular health.
Pediatric Eye Exams
We provide age-appropriate vision assessments starting from infancy, focusing on developmental milestones like eye alignment and binocular vision. Our exams detect amblyopia, strabismus, and refractive errors early to prevent permanent vision impairment. The evaluation includes pupil response testing, fixation patterns, and age-specific visual acuity measurements to ensure proper visual development for academic and athletic performance.
Dry Eye Treatment
Our dry eye management combines advanced diagnostics with personalized treatment plans. We utilize LipiFlow thermal pulsation therapy and BlephEx lid debridement while prescribing specialized artificial tears and anti-inflammatory medications. The approach addresses meibomian gland dysfunction and aqueous deficiency through targeted interventions, lifestyle modifications, and environmental adaptations to restore ocular surface health.
LASIK Evaluation
This pre-surgical assessment determines candidacy for laser vision correction through corneal topography, pupil size measurement, and refractive error analysis. We evaluate ocular health parameters and discuss procedural options while providing post-operative co-management. The evaluation includes discussing realistic outcome expectations and alternative vision correction options for patients not suitable for LASIK surgery.
