Services
Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams include vision acuity testing, eye health evaluation, and assessment of eye focusing and movement. We use advanced diagnostic equipment to detect vision problems and eye diseases. Patients receive personalized recommendations for corrective lenses or treatment plans based on their specific needs and lifestyle.
Contact Lens Exams
We offer specialized contact lens evaluations for various lens types including daily wear, extended wear, and rigid gas permeable lenses. Our optometrist assesses corneal shape and tear film quality to determine optimal lens fit. We provide ongoing support for contact lens wearers including troubleshooting and replacement schedule guidance.
LASIK Surgery
We provide pre- and post-operative care for LASIK surgery patients. Our services include candidacy evaluations, surgical referrals, and follow-up care. We work with trusted surgical centers to ensure quality outcomes for patients seeking permanent vision correction through laser eye surgery.
Ortho-K Therapy
Orthokeratology uses specially designed contact lenses worn overnight to temporarily reshape the cornea. This non-surgical treatment improves vision during waking hours without corrective lenses. We provide custom lens fitting and ongoing monitoring for patients seeking reversible vision correction alternatives.
Computer Vision Treatment
Our treatment addresses symptoms of computer vision syndrome including eye strain, dry eyes, and headaches. We offer specialized eyewear solutions and ergonomic recommendations. The treatment plan includes comprehensive eye exams to assess focusing ability and eye coordination for digital device users.
