Our staff will work with you for all of your eye care needs. From a slight case of nearsightedness to astigmatism, to hard-to-fit contacts, we've got you covered. Here is what we offer:
Eye and Vision Exams
Even if you've never had to wear glasses, it's a good idea of having your eyes checked by an optician once a year--or every two years at the very least. An optical exam is important for more reasons than simply correcting your vision.
The biggest reason to get your eyes checked every year is eye disease. Glaucoma is one example--by the time you experience symptoms, much damage has already been done. Yearly eye exams can catch glaucoma and other conditions before they have a chance to impact your health.
Contact Lens Exams
Contact lens exams add only a small amount of time to your regular eye exam. The optometrist simply needs to measure the curvature of your eye to make sure you get the right prescription. This is especially true when it comes to "hard to fit" contacts.
Hard to Fit Contacts
Do you have a hard time being fitted for contact lenses? Everything from astigmatism, to allergies, to dry eye, to medical conditions such as keratoconus can make contact fittings difficult.
Fortunately, modern technology and a skilled optometrist can solve these problems for almost anyone. If you've had a hard time being fitted for contacts, give us a call. Chances are good we can help you find a solution!
Computer Vision Treatment
Staring at a screen can be hard on your eyes. Even if you don't use a computer or other screen for work, your eyes may be suffering from what's commonly known as "computer vision." Symptoms include:
- Blurred vision
- Dry or scratchy eyes
- Discomfort in the eyes, such as eye strain
- Neck or shoulder pain
- Headaches--especially if you don't have a history of headaches
Anyone who works at a computer is susceptible to computer vision. In fact, since screen use is so prevalent, almost anyone may suffer these symptoms. Our optician can help you understand if computer vision is a problem for you. Then, we'll help you fix it.
Sports Vision
Sports vision treatment is about more than providing snug eyewear and treating injuries. Village Optical takes your eye exam a step further to measure depth perception, eye tracking, and hand-eye coordination. If you'd like to make sure you're on top of the game, ask our eye doctor about sports vision treatment. You may be surprised at the results!
