Your Eye Care

​​​​​​​We test more than just eyesight. We test vision!

20/20 eyesight does not mean perfect vision
Children and adults with high visual demands often experience visual stress and have undetected visual problems, which interfere with their ability to perform or learn. Symptoms such as loss of place, visual fatigue, blur, headaches, reduced comprehension and difficulty concentrating may indicate a developmental and/or visual problems.

Our Comprehensive Vision Exam goes beyond 20/20 to evaluate many important visual skills.

Refractive Status
Evaluations are made for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and the benefits of glasses and contact lenses.

Visual Acuity at Near
Is vision clear and single at close distances? Clear sight at short distances is critical to reading, writing, close work and computer use.

Visual Efficiency
Evaluations are made for visual tracking, focusing and eye coordination ability to insure maximum performance for school, work, and leisure activities.

Eye Teaming Skills
Do the two eyes aim, move, and work as a coordinated team? Weakness in binocular (two-eyed) vision and eye teaming skills can cause numerous difficulties.

Eye Focusing Skills
Do the eyes maintain clear vision at varying distances? Rapid automatic eye focus adjustment is critical to learning, reading, writing, sports, etc. Deficiencies can cause visual fatigue, reduced reading comprehension, and/or avoidance of close work or other activities.

VISION EXAMS FOR CHILDREN
We recommend that infants have their vision evaluated within the first six months of life by their pediatrician, and then a formal eye examination by an optometrist by 3 years of age. Children beginning at age five, should have an annual developmental and visual efficiency evaluation by an optometrist.
