Comprehensive Eye Exams
We recommend a yearly eye exam to ensure your eyes are remaining healthy.
During your appointment, we will review your eye health and medical history, check your vision, do a refraction to get your clearest possible vision, and check the overall health of your eyes, including testing for glaucoma and cataracts.

Myopia Management
Glaucoma
Glaucoma occurs from damage to the eye’s optic nerve and can often lead to loss of vision and blindness. To detect glaucoma, our highly trained doctors will perform a proper screening to determine severity, examine the damage, and help you manage your glaucoma.
Early detection of glaucoma is crucial in preventing vision loss and blindness; the earlier the better. However, there is no official cure for glaucoma. There are several treatment methods that manage, slow down, or halt the process. Treatment for glaucoma will vary depending on the stage and severity for each individual patient.
Children's Eye Care
So many children today have myopia (nearsightedness) worldwide that it is being considered an epidemic. COVID-related lockdowns and the associated increase in screen time have dramatically accelerated the rate of myopia development and progression in children.
In children with myopia, the eyeball grows too long, which results in blurry distance vision. Typically the eye continues to grow until a child is finished with formal education. For many years, parents had no option but to watch their children’s eyes worsen from year to year, buying stronger and stronger glasses. Today, we can intervene and slow the progression of myopia with safe and effective treatment options. Let us identify what needs to be done now, to ensure your child’s healthy eyes for life.
Eyewear
Glasses are an important part of your style and personality, and not all glasses are created equal. Materials, craftsmanship and design all make a difference in how well your glasses will fit and feel. We have carefully selected eyeglasses for high quality and wearable styles, at a range of prices to appeal to everyone.
We know that there are lots of places to get glasses– we hope you will see what we offer and want to get your glasses with us!
