Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye examinations use advanced diagnostic technology to assess vision health and detect ocular conditions. We evaluate visual acuity, eye coordination, and intraocular pressure while checking for signs of eye disease. The exam includes digital imaging of the retina and optic nerve to ensure early detection of potential issues, providing a complete picture of your ocular health and vision needs.
Dry Eye Treatment
We offer specialized treatment for chronic dry eye syndrome using advanced technologies like thermal pulsation therapy and intense pulsed light. Our personalized approach addresses meibomian gland dysfunction and tear film instability through targeted interventions. Treatment plans may include in-office procedures, prescription medications, and lifestyle modifications to improve tear production and ocular comfort for lasting relief.
Ortho-K Lenses
Orthokeratology uses custom-designed gas permeable contact lenses worn overnight to temporarily reshape the cornea. This non-surgical treatment effectively corrects myopia and reduces dependency on glasses or daytime contacts. Our specialists fit patients with personalized Ortho-K lenses that provide clear vision throughout the day while also helping control childhood myopia progression through precise corneal reshaping.
Neurolens Therapy
Neurolens prescription lenses incorporate contoured micro-prism technology to address binocular vision dysfunction and digital eye strain. Using advanced eye-tracking diagnostics, we create customized lenses that realign visual images to reduce eye muscle tension. This innovative treatment alleviates symptoms like headaches, blurred vision, and eye fatigue caused by prolonged screen use or misalignment issues.
Contact Lens Fitting
Our comprehensive contact lens evaluations determine the optimal lens type and fit for individual eye anatomy and lifestyle needs. We specialize in fitting specialty lenses for complex conditions like keratoconus and offer trials with various materials and replacement schedules. The process includes tear film assessment, corneal topography, and personalized instruction on proper lens handling and care routines.
