Keratoconus Treatment
Our keratoconus treatment program combines corneal cross-linking procedures with specialized contact lens fittings. We offer scleral lenses that vault over irregular corneas to restore vision clarity. Patients receive comprehensive evaluations to determine the most effective combination of treatments for their specific condition.
Myopia Management
This specialized program slows myopia progression in children using orthokeratology, MiSight lenses, and atropine therapy. Our optometrists create individualized treatment plans based on axial length measurements and family history to prevent high myopia complications.
Dry Eye Treatments
We provide advanced dry eye care including meibography, IPL therapy, and amniotic membrane treatments. Our approach targets underlying causes through comprehensive diagnostics, offering long-term relief for patients with chronic dry eye syndrome.
Scleral Contact Lenses
Custom scleral lens fittings address vision correction for keratoconus, post-surgical eyes, and severe dry eye. These large-diameter gas permeable lenses create a smooth optical surface while maintaining corneal hydration throughout the day.
Corneal Cross-Linking
This FDA-approved procedure strengthens weakened corneal tissue to halt keratoconus progression. Using riboflavin eye drops and controlled UV light exposure, we help preserve vision and reduce the need for future corneal transplants.
