Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams detect vision issues and eye diseases through slit lamp exams, glaucoma testing, and refraction assessments. We use advanced technology to ensure accurate diagnoses for adults and children. Early detection helps prevent vision loss while maintaining optimal eye health.
Contact Lens Fittings
We offer customized contact lens fittings including daily disposables, multifocal, and astigmatism-correcting lenses. Our optometrists ensure proper fit based on prescription and eye shape. Patients receive training on insertion, removal, and proper lens care for safe wear.
Glaucoma Evaluation
Our glaucoma screening measures intraocular pressure and examines optic nerve damage through dilated eye exams. Early detection prevents vision loss using specialized imaging and visual field testing. We monitor progressive cases with regular follow-up assessments.
Cataract Pre-Op Evaluation
We assess cataract severity and surgical candidacy through detailed eye exams and lens opacity measurements. Our doctors coordinate with surgeons for pre-operative planning while educating patients about intraocular lens options for optimal post-surgery vision.
Diabetic Eye Exams
Specialized diabetic retinopathy screenings include retinal photography and macular edema assessments. We monitor vascular changes in diabetic patients through annual dilated exams to prevent blindness. Early intervention helps preserve vision for diabetes patients.
