What can I expect during my first visit?

You will also receive a comprehensive eye exam to assess your vision and detect any potential issues early on.
What is the difference between nearsightedness and farsightedness?
Nearsightedness, or myopia, is a condition where close objects are seen clearly but distant objects appear blurry.
Farsightedness, or hyperopia, is a condition where distant objects are seen clearly but close objects appear blurry. Both conditions can be corrected with glasses, contacts, or surgery.
What is glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders that can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss if left untreated.
It is often characterized by increased pressure in the eye, which can cause damage over time. We offer comprehensive glaucoma diagnosis and management services at our practice.
What are cataracts?
Cataracts are a clouding of the lens in the eye that affects vision.
They can be caused by age, injury, or other factors. Cataract surgery is available to restore clear vision and improve quality of life for our patients.
How do I know if I need cataract surgery?
If you are experiencing blurry vision, double vision, or sensitivity to light, you may be a candidate for cataract surgery. We offer comprehensive eye exams to assess your specific needs and determine the best course of treatment.
We will also discuss your options with you in detail to ensure that you are making an informed decision about your care.
What is presbyopia?
Presbyopia is a natural age-related condition where the lens in the eye loses flexibility, making it harder to focus on close objects.
This can cause difficulty reading or performing daily tasks that require near vision. We offer a range of solutions for presbyopia, including glasses, contacts, and surgery.
Can I get contact lenses?
Yes, we offer contact lens fittings for patients with unique needs, including toric, multifocal, and keratoconus lenses.
We will work closely with you to determine the best type of lens for your specific needs and provide ongoing care and maintenance instructions.
What is amblyopia?
Amblyopia, or lazy eye, is a condition where the brain favors one eye over the other due to unequal vision in each eye.
We offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment services for amblyopia, including patching therapy and eye exercises to help improve vision.
