Prevention and Routine Care

Regular eye exams are the best way to maintain healthy vision and catch problems early. During a routine exam, your provider may check for:

  • vision changes (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism)
  • early signs of eye disease such as glaucoma, cataracts, or macular degeneration
  • eye complications related to diabetes or other conditions
  • dry eyes or eye irritation.

We also provide prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses.

When to See an Eye Care Provider

You should schedule an eye care appointment if you notice:

  • blurry, double, or distorted vision
  • difficulty seeing at night
  • sudden vision loss or flashes of light
  • pain, redness, or discharge from the eye
  • ongoing headaches or eye strain
  • a family history of eye disease.
