Ocular Disease

Report

It is often said that "the eyes are the window to the soul, " and while that may or may not be true, the eye is certainly a window into many health conditions. In fact, sometimes an eye doctor will be the first physician to diagnose a medical condition because the first signs may appear in the eye.

InfantSEE

Report

The InfantSEE(R) program is a first-of-its kind public health promotion through the American Optometric Association. This program offers a complimentary eye assessment to children of the age six to twelve months. Vision plays a major role in infant development, and any family history of eye disease or the need for any family member to wear glasses are excellent reasons to have your baby's eyes examined.

Specialty Lenses

Report

Are you a candidate for a specialty contact lens? While most patients are able to wear traditional soft contact lenses, not everyone is so lucky. We treat patients with high astigmatism, keratoconus and other ectasias, corneal transplants, irregular corneas, ocular surface disease, and other conditions which benefit from specialty contact lens wear.

Optical

Report

We at the Cape Fear Eye Institute are fortunate to have the experience to answer your questions. Melody and Tommy can work with you to find the right glasses for the right occasion. They will help you make your choices so you look your best. Tommy had these goggles made up for his adventures on his 4-wheeler.
