Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams assess visual acuity, eye health, and systemic health indicators. Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The exam includes visual field testing, refraction analysis, and digital retinal imaging to create complete vision profiles for patients of all ages.
Dry Eye Treatment
We offer specialized dry eye management combining advanced diagnostics with personalized treatment plans. Our approach includes tear film analysis, lid hygiene education, and innovative therapies like LipiFlow and intense pulsed light treatment. We help patients achieve lasting relief from symptoms like burning, itching, and blurred vision through targeted interventions.
Myopia Management
Our evidence-based myopia control program targets progressive nearsightedness in children. Using orthokeratology, multifocal contact lenses, and atropine therapy, we slow axial elongation of the eye. Regular monitoring and customized treatment plans help reduce long-term risks of high myopia while maintaining clear vision during childhood development.
Surgical Co-Management
We provide comprehensive pre- and post-operative care for LASIK, cataract, and corneal transplant surgeries. Our role includes detailed candidacy evaluations, surgical planning, and post-op monitoring to ensure optimal outcomes. We coordinate closely with specialist surgeons to maintain continuity of care throughout the surgical process.
Specialty Contact Lenses
We specialize in fitting complex contact lens designs for irregular corneas and challenging prescriptions. Our expertise includes scleral lenses for keratoconus, hybrid lenses for astigmatism, and multifocal contacts for presbyopia. Advanced corneal mapping technology ensures precise lens design for maximum comfort and visual clarity.
