Dry Eye Treatment
To keep your eyes healthy, you need to have tears to provide moisture and lubrication. This is not only for your comfort but also for your vision. Tears are secreted by glands around your eyes. When you do not make enough tears, you have a condition called dry eye.
Eyeglasses & Contacts
We are proud to offer our patients eyeglasses and contact lenses accessories.
We have multiple cleaning solutions so we can find the one that is just right for you. It is important that your contact lenses are cleaned and stored in the right solution so they last as long as possible. Clean contacts will ensure that your eyes stay as healthy as possible.
Welcoming New Patients!
In order to have a timely first visit, we will go over as much as possible on the phone. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have. We can discuss the reason for your visit, including whether or not you need new eyeglasses or contact lenses. You can even fill out our new patient forms prior to your visit, which can really speed up your appointment time.
At your first visit, we will go over your insurance information and talk to you about eye health. We will discuss any problems or concerns you have. If you have any questions, we will do our best to answer them before you see the doctor.
