Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we detect conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. The exam includes refraction testing for eyeglass prescriptions and evaluation of binocular vision function.
Contact Lenses
We specialize in fitting all contact lens types including toric, multifocal, and specialty lenses for keratoconus. Our practitioners ensure proper lens selection for comfort and visual clarity. We offer trial fittings and follow-up evaluations to optimize lens performance.
LASIK Surgery
We provide pre-operative evaluations and post-operative care for LASIK procedures performed at NuVision facility. Our doctors assess candidacy using wavefront technology and corneal mapping. We offer customized treatment plans for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

Our pediatric eye exams detect vision problems affecting learning and development. We diagnose and treat amblyopia, strabismus, and focusing disorders. Vision therapy programs improve eye coordination and reading readiness for children aged 3-18.
