TOP QUESTIONS WE HEAR FROM PATIENTS
Can I wear contacts?
To determine if you are a good candidate for contact lenses a comprehensive eye exam is needed. Our doctors will check the prescription your eyes need, the curvature of the front surface of your eyes, and the overall health. This exam will determine if it is safe for you to wear contacts and what type of contact lenses you would need.

How does diabetes affect vision?
Diabetes can cause patients to have fluctuating blurry vision as blood sugar spikes or is unstable. Diabetes can also cause permanent vision loss from damage to the blood vessels in the back of the eye. A yearly dilation exam is needed to ensure that damage is caught early before it causes any vision loss for the patient.
