Comprehensive Eye Exams

Routine eye examinations are important for children, teens, adults and geriatrics. Eye exams keep children and teens current with vision demands made by education. Adults need eye exams to keep up with their visual demands, as well, including driving, electronic usage and hobbies. Our geriatric population is more likely to need cataract evaluations, systemic coordination for hypertension and diabetes, and other eye conditions that may not be symptomatic. Below are common eye conditions that may be found during your routine eye exam, and which Dr. McLaughlin is trained to manage:

Contacts

Contact lenses may be a good solution to your visual needs for a number of reasons, including cosmetic change, active lifestyles, comfort, and in some cases enhanced vision. They should be medically evaluated on your eyes on a yearly basis to ensure proper corneal health.

Specialty Contact Lenses

• RGPs — We fit RGP lenses for patients that are accustomed to wearing them, those that have high astigmatism, and those that want a multifocal option.
• Scleral Lenses — We use Custom Stable™ lenses to provide the clearest and most comfortable vision possible when a patient has an irregular cornea resulting from a number of different causes, such as keratoconus, severe dry eye, post-refractive surgery changes, and other corneal diseases that cause scarring.
• Myopia Management — Myopia (nearsightedness) is commonly diagnosed in childhood and can worsen over time, increasing the risk of more severe sight conditions later in life. 95% of parents say their child’s eye health/vision is absolutlely essential to their child’s overall well-being. MiSight® 1 day contact lenses reduced the rate of myopia progression in children (aged 8-12 at the initiation of treatment) by 59% on average, resulting in a lower prescription.

Disease Management

Eye disease is a broad term for any medically abnormal process happening in the eye. Sometimes eye diseases are extremely noticeable and symptomatic. Other times, eye diseases may only be found through routine eye examinations, as they may not be causing any symptoms at all. Below is a list of common eye diseases that you may be symptomatic of, or may be found during your routine examination:
