  • Plaquenil Evaluation - Screening for plaquenil involves a full eye exam in addition to automated visual fields, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), and fundus autofluorescence (FAF).

  • Dry Eye and Allergy Evaluation - A dry eye evaluation makes use of the Schirmer test in order to measure the amount of tears produced and collected within five minutes.

  • Lid Evaluation for Oculoplastics - This evaluation involves a thorough eyelid analysis, evaluation for lacrimal gland prolapse and concurrent ptosis, evaluation of eyelid malposition, and eyelash position.
  • Eyelash Treatment Evaluation- We use LATISSE®; an FDA-approved treatment to grow eyelashes for people with inadequate or not enough lashes.
  • Glaucoma Evaluation - Our extensive glaucoma evaluations examine the pressure within your eye (tonometry), the health of your optic nerve (ophthalmoscopy), your complete field of vision (perimetry), wideness or narrowness of your eyes’ iridocorneal angles (gonioscopy), and thickness of your corneas (pachymetry).
  • Macular Degeneration Evaluation - This screening consists of a complete eye exam with dilation and may include using the Amsler grid, visual field testing, digital retinal photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), ophthalmoscopy, and fluorescein angiography.
  • Chalazion and Stye Evaluation - This is a specific eyelid examination where biomicroscopy is utilized to analyze the condition of the sebaceous (meibomian) glands as well as to see if any lumps reside underneath the eyelid.

The Importance of Regular Eye Exams

Eye exams are crucial for maintaining overall eye health and detecting potential issues early. They assess vision, screen for eye diseases, and identify conditions like glaucoma or cataracts. Regular exams can uncover symptoms of systemic health problems such as diabetes or hypertension. Timely intervention through eye exams can prevent vision loss, ensuring optimal eye function and well-being.
