Services
Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams utilize advanced diagnostic technology to assess visual acuity, eye health, and functional vision. These evaluations detect vision problems and eye diseases while establishing baseline measurements for corrective solutions. Our optometrists provide detailed explanations of test results and personalized recommendations for vision correction or treatment plans.
Contact Lens Exams
Specialized contact lens exams determine the optimal lens type and prescription for individual eye conditions. We offer fittings for soft, rigid gas permeable, and specialty lenses including bifocal and astigmatism-correcting options. Our doctors provide comprehensive guidance on lens care, wearing schedules, and suitability based on lifestyle factors and ocular health.
LASIK Referrals
We provide pre-operative evaluations and post-operative care for LASIK and refractive surgeries. Our doctors assess candidacy through detailed eye exams and coordinate care with surgical centers. We monitor recovery progress and manage any post-surgical complications while offering alternative vision correction options when surgery isn't recommended.
Sports Vision
Sports vision assessments enhance athletic performance through specialized testing of eye tracking, depth perception, and visual processing speed. We offer training programs to improve hand-eye coordination and contrast sensitivity, utilizing advanced technology like RightEye systems for both in-office and remote training sessions tailored to specific sports requirements.
Vision Therapy
Our vision therapy programs address visual processing disorders through customized exercises that improve eye coordination, focusing ability, and brain-eye communication. This non-surgical treatment benefits patients with learning-related vision problems, amblyopia, and computer vision syndrome through progressive, doctor-supervised therapy sessions designed to enhance visual efficiency and comfort.
