MYOPIA CONTROL
Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is when distance images become blurry. The earlier a child developed myopia, the higher their risk for serious eye conditions such as maculopathies and retinal detachments. Early intervention is key when it comes to myopia control.
Our doctors specialize in numerous therapeutic techniques that can slow down your child’s myopia progression. These techniques include contact lens wear, orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses, and specialty glasses.

VISUAL EXAMINATION
A thorough health evaluation will be taken, and testing will be done to evaluate both the internal and external health of your eyes. This includes testing for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, diabetes, hypertension and other eye diseases. How clearly your eyes see, the focusing ability, the eye teaming and the coordination skills will be evaluated at distance and near with particular regard to your specific visual demands.
Once the examination has been completed, our doctors will carefully explain the findings and discuss any recommendations for “preventive or remedial” care. Our goal is to find the “cause” of your visual discomfort or stress and alter its effects on your visual system. Our philosophy is to improve your vision as much as possible, rather than just “increase your prescription”.

CONTACT LENSES
Our doctors offer complete professional contact lens care. This includes the initial evaluation as well as follow-up visits. A complete range of contact lenses is offered, including the fitting of hard, gas permeable, soft, bifocal, astigmatic, extended wear, disposable and colored lenses. The latest state of the art corneal topographer is utilized to thoroughly evaluate your corneal health as well as tear film stability.
After receiving training from our professional staff and a little practice, you will be wearing and handling your lenses with confidence – even if you have been unsuccessful in the past.
Also, if you have ever been told that you need “contacts for sensitive eyes”, “contacts for keratoconus” or that “you can’t wear contacts”, do not worry, our experts can fit you for specialty contacts as well!
We also use the latest technology to assess contact lens associated dry eye. With the use of the AcuTarget HD Analyzer, our trained doctors can assess to what degree dry eye is affecting your contact lens success.

DRY EYE ASSESSMENT
Ever experience burning, stinging eyes? Ever experience a ‘sandy’ or ‘gritty’ feeling when you blink? Then you may have Dry Eye Syndrome. Dry eyes can be due to internal factors, such as age, hormonal changes, medications, or external factors, such as contact lens use, work environment, or ocular anatomy.

PEDIATRIC VISION SERVICES
Our doctors are well experienced meeting the unique vision needs of children. The importance of clear, comfortable, efficient vision to assure your child reaches his or her highest potential is our number one objective. The basic school screening (“eye chart”) commonly done in most schools measures only one small part of a child’s total visual performance. Children’s examinations are specifically designed to evaluate the skills necessary for a child to meet the ever-changing demands of the classroom.
Glasses alone may not provide the optimum visual performance necessary for a child. If this is the case, vision therapy is often the best choice to alleviate the visual problem.
