Our Services
Our exams evaluate the overall health of your eyes, including the retina, optic nerve, and eye pressure. Early detection of conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts can help protect your vision long-term.​​​​
Dry eyes can cause burning, tearing, redness, and blurry vision. We identify the underlying cause—such as blocked oil glands, inflammation, or environmental factors—and create a personalized plan that may include prescription eye drops, in-office treatments, specialized contact lenses, or lifestyle changes to restore comfort and clarity.
Unlike regular contacts, scleral lenses vault over the cornea and rest on the white part of the eye, providing both comfort and stable vision. They are especially helpful for patients with keratoconus, corneal transplants, severe dry eye, or other irregularities that make standard lenses ineffective.
As we age, it becomes harder to focus up close (presbyopia). Multifocal contact lenses are designed to provide clear vision at near, intermediate, and far distances—reducing or eliminating the need for reading glasses while maintaining an active lifestyle.
If you have diabetes, it’s important to have your eyes checked regularly. Diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina, causing diabetic retinopathy—one of the leading causes of preventable vision loss. Our diabetic eye exams may include retinal imaging and dilation to detect early changes.
Nearsightedness (Myopia) – A common vision condition in which close objects appear clear, but distant objects look blurry. In young children, myopia can worsen over time, increasing the risk of eye complications. We offer personalized treatments—including atropine drops, FDA-approved daily soft contact lenses, and orthokeratology—to help slow progression and protect long-term vision.
Known as the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma causes vision loss without noticeable symptoms until advanced stages. Regular testing of eye pressure, visual fields, and the optic nerve allows us to detect glaucoma early and begin treatment to preserve your vision.
