Your Eye Exam
Eye examinations are an important part of preventative healthcare. Healthy eyes and good vision help us lead active, independent lifestyles. Many eye and vision conditions present no obvious symptoms, so people often do not know that a problem exists. Our aim is to identify problems early and treat them at a time when the prognosis is better and treatment options are greater. Problems that can be detected during an eye exam include: cataracts, retinal tears, macular degeneration, glaucoma, lazy eye, and evidence of systemic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. These are just a few reasons why it is important to have your eyes examined regularly by an optometrist.
The frequency of optometric examinations are varied somewhat based on age, medical and family history, occupation and other factors. Individuals with signs or symptoms of vision changes require prompt examination. In addition, the presence of certain risk factors may necessitate more frequent evaluations. We recommend annual eye examinations for individuals who are under 18 years of age, over 60 years of age, wearing contact lenses, very near-sighted, diabetic, hypertensive, or have a positive family history of eye diseases. We provide comprehensive eye care services in a comfortable, caring, and professional manner. Our staff has been carefully trained to be responsive to your needs. We encourage you to ask any questions during your visit.
