Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams include vision testing, prescription determination, color vision assessment, binocular vision evaluation, and eye pressure testing. We use pupil dilation and digital retinal imaging to thoroughly assess eye health. These exams help detect conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration while ensuring optimal vision correction.
Contact Lens Fitting
We specialize in fitting soft and rigid gas permeable lenses, including toric lenses for astigmatism and multifocal options. Our keratoconus-specific fittings provide comfort for irregular corneas. Orthokeratology lenses reshape the cornea overnight for daytime vision correction without surgery, offering an alternative to laser procedures.
Digital Retinal Imaging
This non-invasive technology captures high-resolution images of the retina to detect diseases like diabetic retinopathy. It enables early diagnosis of conditions such as glaucoma and macular degeneration. The imaging helps track changes in eye health over time for more precise treatment planning.
Laser Surgery Consultation
We evaluate candidacy for laser vision correction through detailed eye assessments. Our optometrists coordinate with reputable surgeons for procedures like LASIK. We provide pre-operative consultations and post-operative co-management to ensure optimal surgical outcomes and patient safety.
Ophthalmologist Referrals
When complex conditions require surgical intervention, we connect patients with trusted ophthalmologists. Our network includes experts in retinal diseases, glaucoma, and corneal transplants. We maintain communication with specialists to ensure coordinated, comprehensive care throughout the treatment process.
