Our goal is to provide comprehensive eye care for you and your entire family. Our focus on preventative eye care, combined with a culture that centers around providing the perfect eye care experience, sets us apart as a patient-first practice.
Did you know that most eye diseases begin their development asymptomatically? This means that a major eye disease that can rob you of your vision (such as glaucoma) may exist for weeks or months before you notice a change to your vision. By the time you’ve noticed a change, vision already lost is gone forever.
Unlike a broken bone or a treatable illness, your eyesight can not recover from a disease that has damaged it. In fact, visual acuity lost to eye diseases such as glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy cannot be restored. For this reason we practice preventative eye care, with an emphasis on proactive testing and treatments.
Most eye exams are completed in under an hour, and thanks to our use of advanced testing and diagnostic equipment, an eye exam is completely painless. Most healthy Americans should have an eye exam every one to two years (unless otherwise directed by a doctor).
If it has been more than a year since your last eye exam, please request an appointment to schedule one.
