Services
LASIK Surgery
LASIK surgery at Standard Optical uses advanced wavefront-guided technology to correct vision issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Our certified surgeons perform over 25,000 procedures annually, utilizing the VISX Star S4 IR excimer laser for precision outcomes. Patients benefit from personalized consultations and post-operative care to ensure optimal results and long-term eye health.
Cataract Treatment
Our cataract treatment includes early detection through advanced diagnostics and surgical replacement with intraocular lenses (IOLs). Using cutting-edge techniques, we restore clarity and reduce dependency on glasses. Our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive procedures for faster recovery and improved visual acuity, tailored to each patient's lifestyle needs.
Dry Eye Therapy
Dry eye therapy addresses symptoms like redness and irritation through customized treatment plans. We offer artificial tears, prescription medications, and advanced therapies like punctal plugs or IPL treatment. Our approach focuses on identifying root causes, such as environmental factors or underlying health conditions, for lasting relief.
Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye exams assess vision correction needs and screen for diseases like glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Our optometrists use digital imaging and refraction tests to ensure accurate prescriptions for glasses or contacts. Exams also evaluate eye coordination and overall ocular health for patients of all ages.
Eyeglasses
Standard Optical offers a wide selection of designer and affordable eyeglasses, including frames from BCBG, COACH, and Calvin Klein. Our ANSI-certified labs fabricate lenses with precision, offering options like progressives, polycarbonate, and blue light protection.
