What Is Primary Eye Care?


PRIMARY EYE CARE includes a comprehensive vision and eye health examination. This examination is designed to detect a wide range of problems affecting vision function, such as blurred vision or eye discomfort.



The American Optometric Association recommends that all people should

have a comprehensive eye examination every one to two years, depending on one's particular needs.


Here at our offices we incorporate computerized digital technology to

assist the evaluation of spectacle prescriptions, peripheral vision,

intraocular pressure, and eye health. Computerized examination instruments are used to supplement rather than replace personalized care. Examinations include tests for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and the ocular effects of many general health disorders such as diabetes and high blood pressure. A dilated pupil examination allows us to provide the best assessment of eye health. It is recommended for all new patients and on a scheduled basis thereafter.
