Timely
comprehensive eye and vision examinations help patients maintain
or restore clear, comfortable vision. Disease prevention and
health promotion are also provided to patients through regular
comprehensive eye and vision examinations. As eyecare providers,
our optometrists have the expertise to examine, diagnose,
treat and manage a wide variety of eye and vision problems.
They can diagnose eye diseases caused by systemic problems
such as diabetes and hypertension. Our optometrists want to
serve you and provide quality-based comprehensive eye examination.
vision examinations for eye health, preventive maintenance,
and prescribing eye glasses
We do more than check whether you need contacts or glasses.
Our practice is dedicated to maintaining the overall health
of your eyes. An annual visit to your optometrist is an important
part of preventative eye care. Your optometrist can detect
eye problems in their early stages. Early detection of eye
problems more severe than vision corrections is crucial because
often symptoms do not appear to the patient until vision is
permanently damaged.
Our office is designed to care for the vision needs of each
family member from beginning to end. After a thorough eye
exam and determining which corrective measure best meets your
vision and lifestyle needs, you can pick out your new eyewear
and we will fill the prescription.
If you decide on glasses, our office has a wide selection
of frames to choose from with something for everyone. We carry
contemporary and traditional frame styles, as well as specialty
frames like sun or sports glasses. To best fill your prescription,
we have every type of lens available. If you decide on contact
lenses, we also carry full lines of soft, gas permeable, disposable,
and colored contact lenses.
Medical Examinations and Treatment of eye disease such as
cataract, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy
and others
Everyone should have regular eye examinations. Ocular health
encompasses more than contacts or glasses. Early detection
of eye disease is critical to successful treatment. By the
time symptoms of many diseases actually occur, the patient
may already have permanent vision loss. Regular eye exams
by our optometrist ensure that any health threat to vision
is detected and appropriate measures are taken. A patient
need not have a history of poor vision to suffer from an eye
disease. Several diseases, such as glaucoma or macular degeneration,
left untreated will irreversibly damage vision.
Headaches, a reduced or foggy field of vision, floaters or
flashes in your vision, and eye strain can be indicators of
a more serious vision problem. Please call our office immediately
to schedule an appointment.
Children's Vision
Infants and young children require unique methods for evaluating
eye health, clarity of vision, and eye coordination. Infants
and children from birth through age six are evaluated for
proper development of visual skills. The American Optometric
Association recommends that infants receive their first vision
examination at six months. Vision screenings and examinations
are essential for infants and young children in identifying
and correcting vision and eye health disorders that may hinder
the learning process.
High quality optometric services are provided in a manner
and with the skill that is consistent with the best interest
of the patient. Our Doctors of Optometry demonstrate compassion
and concern for the individual while utilizing the latest
developments in vision correction, diagnosis, and treatment
of eye conditions and diseases. Our Doctors, staff, and student
interns strive to communicate effectively with our patients,
listening carefully to their needs and concerns and educating
them about the nature of their condition and about appropriate
treatment options.
