Our optometrist provides the expert care, advice, options, and follow up you need whether you are a new patient or an existing one.

Dry Eye Treatment

Dry eyes result from the chronic lack of lubrication and moisture on the surface of the eye, which can cause minor irritations, an inability to wear contact lenses and an increased risk of corneal inflammation and eye infections. Learn more about dry eye treatments.

Diabetic Retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is an eye disease that only affects diabetics. It occurs when the fragile vascular network that supplies the retina begins to swell or leak. In early stages, there may be no noticeable symptoms, you should check your eyes at least once a year if you have diabetes.
