Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams include medical history review, vision testing, and retinal imaging to detect vision problems and eye diseases early. We assess focusing ability, eye health, and systemic conditions affecting vision. Patients receive personalized recommendations for corrective lenses or treatment plans during these evaluations.
Dry Eye Treatment
We offer advanced dry eye solutions including Tixel i thermal therapy, prescription medications, and amniotic membrane treatments. Our approach addresses meibomian gland dysfunction while providing immediate symptom relief through artificial tears and lifestyle modifications for long-term ocular comfort.
Glaucoma Management
Our glaucoma specialists use cutting-edge diagnostics to monitor intraocular pressure and optic nerve health. Treatment plans may include medicated eye drops, laser therapy, or surgical referrals to prevent vision loss from this progressive disease through early detection and intervention.
Computer Vision Syndrome
We address screen-related vision problems with specialized computer glasses, ergonomic recommendations, and the 20/20/20 rule. Our treatments alleviate symptoms like eye fatigue and blurred vision caused by prolonged digital device use through customized vision correction plans.
Myopia Control
Our FDA-approved MiSight contact lenses slow myopia progression in children by 59% on average. This daily disposable solution combines vision correction with axial length management to reduce future risks of severe eye conditions associated with high myopia.
