What is a Comprehensive Eye Exam?
What Do We Look For?
Our Eye Doctors are always on the lookout for various vascular diseases (like signs of Diabetes), but also Myopia, Hyperopia, Presbyopia and the more common forms of Astigmatism.
Here is a comprehesive list of what we scan for and what we can treat or address directly.
|
Conditions We Scan For OCT Scans Included in Every Eye Exam |
Conditions We Treat | Conditions We Refer |
|
Vascular Diseases such as Diabetes and High Blood Pressure |
We always monitor all vision and eye related health conditions for treatment or referral |
We do not treat Daibetes or High Blood Pressure but will refer you to your GP or Specialist. |
|
Myopia, Myperopia, Presbyopia and Astigmatism |
We treat all of these conditions with our current staff of eye doctors. |
Only in specific situations do we refer for these matters. |
|
Cataracts, Macular Degeneration, Glaucoma, Kerataconous, Floaters |
We monitor the progression of these conditions but refer for treatment or surgery. |
These are conditions that are treated by an eye specialist. |

Myopia Control & Ortho K
Myopia control, which is usually a treatment method we use for children to prevent myopia from getting worse. Children who have a family history of vision issues are often candidates for such treatment.
Orthokeratoloy, also known as Ortho-K, is a treatment for both children and some adults that allow you to reduce the usage of eyewear (eyeglasses and contact lenses) during the day! It is a very time-tested and effective treatment that is great for people who prefer to go without eyewear during the day or who play sports or do other recreational activities. All you do is wear special lenses at night that reshape your eye to assist in creating better vision during the day.
Ask our staff for these special assessments that can really improve you and your childrens’ quality of life!
