Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams detect vision problems and ocular diseases while assessing overall eye health. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we evaluate visual acuity, eye coordination, and intraocular pressure to identify conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The exams include refraction testing to determine corrective lens prescriptions for optimal vision clarity.
Dry Eye Treatment
We offer specialized dry eye treatments using cutting-edge technology like OptiLIGHT IPL and Systane iLux. Our approach combines advanced diagnostics with personalized treatment plans to address meibomian gland dysfunction and tear film instability. Treatments focus on reducing inflammation, improving oil gland function, and restoring natural tear production for lasting relief.
Myopia Control
Our Myopia Control Clinic utilizes Overnight Sight Molds and specialized contact lenses to slow childhood nearsightedness progression. Through corneal reshaping technology, we provide clear daytime vision without glasses while addressing the underlying causes of worsening myopia in young patients through structured treatment programs.
Contact Lenses
We provide comprehensive contact lens evaluations and fittings for all vision needs. Our optometrists specialize in multifocal contacts, astigmatism correction, and specialty lenses for complex prescriptions. The service includes proper lens selection, insertion/removal training, and ongoing care guidance to ensure comfort and optimal vision correction.
