Myopia Management
Our specialized myopia control programs use FDA-approved solutions like MiSight daily disposables and Paragon CRT Ortho-K lenses. These treatments reshape the cornea during sleep, reducing nearsightedness progression in children by up to 59% while providing daytime glasses-free vision. Our doctors monitor axial length changes using Topcon MYAH technology to track treatment effectiveness.
Comprehensive Eye Exams
We conduct thorough eye exams using advanced diagnostics like Optomap retinal imaging and corneal topography. Our evaluations detect early signs of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy while assessing visual acuity and prescription needs for glasses or contact lenses.
Contact Lens Fittings
Our specialists fit all contact lens types, including rigid gas permeable lenses for keratoconus, multifocal lenses for presbyopia, and scleral lenses for dry eye patients. We offer trial fittings and Menicon solution partnerships for specialty lens care.
Low Vision Services
We provide low vision evaluations and prescribe magnification devices for patients with macular degeneration, glaucoma, or diabetic vision loss. Our customized solutions include illuminated magnifiers, telescopic lenses, and tinted filters to maximize remaining vision.
Corneal Topography
Our Medmont E-300 topographer creates detailed corneal curvature maps to diagnose irregular astigmatism and keratoconus. This technology enables precise fitting of specialty contact lenses and pre-surgical assessments for LASIK candidates.
