COMPREHENSIVE EYE EXAMS
FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Eyes On You Vision Care provides a variety of tests that measure a person's ocular health and visual status, to detect abnormalities in the components of the visual system, and to determine how well the person can see.
Complete Medical and Visual History
Many medical conditions can affect the health of the eye. It is important for us to know your complete history as well as prescription or over the counter medications to be able to provide you with the best care possible.
Refraction
Determination of glasses prescription. The dreaded, "which is better" 1 or 2?
Neurological Screening
Evaluation of the way the eyes move and work together as well as the connection/pathway to the brain, tell us if the nerves and muscles controlling your eyes are working properly or need further evaluation.
Eye Health Evaluation
We thoroughly examine for hidden, symptom-less potentially sight threatening eye disorders not found at screenings in the school or general practitioner's office. A slit lamp is a high-powered microscope used to examine the internal and external parts of the eye. The pupils are often dilated to better view the internal parts of the eye so that diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts or complications due to diabetes or hypertension are more easily seen.
**NEW** Optomap Retinal Exam
To view the retina, either your eyes must be dilated, or for a minimal fee you may choose to have a retinal image of your eye taken with the Optomap®. Retinal imaging is used to screen for and diagnose eye and non-eye diseases and forms part of a comprehensive eye examination process. Many indicators of systemic disease and precursors to eye conditions often exhibit first in the periphery of the retina.

Medical Eye Exams
Monitoring those with glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, retinal conditions, dry eye, among others.
We provide emergency appointments day of for injuries, infections, sudden visual changes, and use specialized state of the art equipment.
Zeiss OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging test. OCT uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of your retina. With OCT, we can see each of the retina’s distinctive layers. This allows us to map and measure their thickness. This is commonly used to better track glaucoma or macular degeneration for changes or progression.
Visual Field Testing
A visual field test is a method of measuring an individual's entire scope of vision, that is their central and peripheral (side) vision. This test is often performed to monitor glaucoma or other neurological disorders.
