PRIMARY EYE HEATH CARE
Periodic eye health examinations are recommended for all individuals in order to ensure the health of the eyes and to provide clear and comfortable vision.Many eye conditions can begin with little or no patient symptoms or discomfort. If detected early, most ocular conditions can be remediated with appropriate treatment and follow-up, allowing for the preservation of visual function.

PEDIATRIC VISION CARE
Comprehensive vision care is recommended for all infants and children. Adequate vision is critical for normal development of the eyes during the early years of life. A variety of objective and computerized measurements are utilized to assess the vision and eye health to ensure appropriate development of the vision system.

CONTACT LENS EVALUATIONS AND CARE
New developments in contact lens technology have made contact lens wear safer, more comfortable and expanded the range of patients who are candidates for contact lens use. Over the last decade we have seen improvements in lens materials and design that allow us to provide successful contact lens fitting to patients who were previously unable to wear lenses due to poor comfort, poor vision, or both.

SURGICAL CO-MANAGEMENT
Recent advancements have made refractive surgery safer and more reliable than ever. Laser refractive surgery to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism now allows for improved vision with rapid recovery following the procedure with minimal discomfort. Our doctors perform all pre and post operative evaluations necessary for refractive surgery procedures. We also provide the same care for any patient undergoing cataract surgery as well as many other surgical procedures.
