Regular eye exams are especially important for those managing diabetes, as diabetic retinopathy can develop without noticeable symptoms in its early stages. 👁️

Early detection helps protect your vision and allows for timely treatment when needed. Our comprehensive eye exams include diabetic eye screenings to monitor your eye health alongside your diabetes management.

Let's take a moment to reflect on the profound sacrifices made by our veterans and active military members.

Their service has shaped the freedoms we cherish, and their courage continues to inspire us all. To the families who have supported them throughout their service, thank you as well. Your strength and dedication matter deeply.

As winter sets in, many of us spend more time indoors with screens and artificial lighting. 💻

This shift can strain your eyes, but there are simple ways to protect your vision.

Try the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.

Adjust your screen brightness to match your surroundings and consider blue light filters.

Proper room lighting, like ambient light behind your screen, can also reduce strain.

If you’re experiencing eye discomfort, headaches, or changes in your vision, we're here to help!

Why is your vision blurry? It could be due to nearsightedness or farsightedness caused by the length of your eyeball or the curve of your cornea.

Nearsightedness makes close-up objects clear but blurs distant ones, while farsightedness hinders clear vision of nearby objects but keeps distant ones in focus.

The good news is, regular eye exams and the right eyewear can help correct these refractive errors and more!

We can recommend the right drops for your eyes and provide extra tips for getting relief when you visit us for an eye exam. Schedule your appointment today!

We have 3 different types of tears that do a lot to help our eyes—and our hearts—but sometimes they need a little support, too.

When you experience issues like burning, red eyes, or an overabundance of tears, your tears might be failing to keep your eyes hydrated. We can help with that.

Book an appointment to get a diagnosis of your symptoms and personal support for your tears.
