Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye examinations detect both ocular and systemic diseases like diabetes and hypertension. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we assess visual acuity, eye health, and neurological connections. Patients receive personalized recommendations for vision correction and disease management.
Emergency Eye Care
We provide urgent treatment for eye trauma, infections, and sudden vision loss. Our mobile response team addresses acute conditions requiring immediate attention. Services include foreign body removal, chemical burn treatment, and emergency medication administration.
Home Visits
Our portable equipment enables full eye exams at nursing homes and private residences. This service caters to patients with mobility challenges. We maintain the same diagnostic accuracy as in-office visits while providing personalized care in familiar environments.
Low Vision Treatment
Specialized programs help patients maximize remaining vision through magnification devices and adaptive techniques. We collaborate with rehabilitation teams to support patients with traumatic brain injuries. Custom solutions improve daily living activities and quality of life.
Ortho-K Therapy
This non-surgical treatment uses custom contact lenses to temporarily reshape the cornea during sleep. Effective for myopia control in children and adults, it provides daytime vision correction without lenses. We offer fittings and follow-up care for long-term success.

Questions
Why are regular eye exams important even with 20/20 vision?
Regular exams detect asymptomatic eye diseases like glaucoma and monitor systemic health indicators. Early detection prevents vision loss and identifies conditions like diabetes through ocular signs.
What happens during eye dilation?
Dilation allows full retina examination by temporarily widening pupils. Effects include light sensitivity and blurred near vision for several hours. We recommend avoiding detailed work post-exam.
Do you offer same-day glasses?
Yes, our in-office lab produces many prescriptions the same day. This service eliminates weeks-long wait times for vision correction, with most patients receiving glasses within hours of their exam.
What defines Mobile Optometry's services?
We uniquely combine portable diagnostic equipment with home/clinic visits. Dr. Frost's specialized training enables comprehensive exams in non-traditional settings while maintaining diagnostic accuracy.
How do you handle eye emergencies?
We prioritize urgent cases with same-day appointments for trauma, infections, or sudden vision changes. Our mobile unit provides emergency treatment for conditions requiring immediate intervention to preserve vision.
