EYE EXAMINATIONS
For both adults and children, an eye exam is a critical part in maintaining your overall health and well-being, and therefore, regular eye exams should be incorporated into your health routine. Comprehensive eye exams assess your vision and the health of your eye, looking for early signs of disease that may not have obvious symptoms. You should not wait until you experience a vision problem or symptoms of an eye condition to schedule a routine exam.
Your comprehensive eye exam at our practice is about more than giving you clear vision. We work with you to understand and meet your visual needs to keep your eyes comfortable throughout the day. Your eyes will also be screened for a variety of ocular diseases, with early detection, your chances of successful treatment are much higher.
EYEWEAR & OPTICAL LENSES
Whatever your style, glasses are a great accessory to complement and enhance your individuality. Our experienced team will assist you in deciding on the frame that is most suited to your prescription and your look.
There are a variety of lens options available. Our optometrist will discuss all the available options and work with you to choose the lens that best serves your needs. Your lenses can provide simple correction at one focal point, be perfect for use at work, or can enable you fulltime wear for all situations.
CONTACT LENSES
Contact lenses are a great alternative to wearing eyeglasses. An often-unknown fact is that not all patients wear contact lenses as their primary source of vision correction. Each patient is different, with some patients wearing contact lenses only on weekends, special occasions or just for sports. That is the beauty of contact lens wear, the flexibility it gives each individual patient and their lifestyle.
If you decide to opt for contact lens wear, it is particularly important that the lenses fit properly and comfortably and that you understand contact lens safety and hygiene. A contact lens exam will include both a comprehensive eye exam to check your overall eye health, your general vision prescription and then a contact lens consultation and measurement to determine the proper lens fit.
REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE
We can provide basic repairs and maintenance on your spectacles free of charge. If there were to be a cost involved in our repair work we will let you know in advance.
Feel free to come in at any other time for tightening, cleaning, screw or nosepad replacements, or any other issues you may have with your glasses – we are here to help and make sure that your spectacles are 100% suitable for your needs
