Eye Examinations & Contact Lens Fittings


Our dedicated doctor's thorough eye examinations for the entire family includes a prescription for spectacles and, if desired, contact lenses including soft and rigid gas permeables. If you are new to contact lenses, we will teach you how to wear and handle your contact lenses correctly and safely. In addition, your eyes will be tested for cataracts, glaucoma and ocular disorders. If you are suffering from an eye infection, dry eyes or other eye problems, a medical prescription will be provided along with follow-up care. Our doctor also co-manages with our area's distinguished ophthalmologists for your lasik, cataract and ocular needs. We are here to help address, diagnose and alleviate all your vision and ocular concerns.
