Personalized Dry Eye Assessments

Are your gritty, sore, red eyes caused by allergies, dry eye disease, or something else? At Spectrum Eye Care, we provide an in-depth ocular assessment, allowing us to gain a true understanding of what you’re living with and build a plan to provide relief.

Dry eye is a complex condition. When finding relief is a challenge, we can recommend an appointment with Dr. Meagan Embrey through our Ocular Wellness Program in partnership with Revision Health.

Our evidence-backed dry eye treatment methods include iLux thermal pulsation, Equinox low-level light therapy, soothing eye masks, and more.

Myopia Management: Protecting Your Child’s Vision

Not long ago, the only option we had to help nearsighted kids was to prescribe them glasses or contacts. This corrects their vision, but children’s prescriptions tend to worsen quickly as they grow up.

A higher prescription isn’t simply inconvenient; it also raises the risk of many serious eye conditions. Thankfully, with specialized soft contact lenses or overnight CRT contacts, we can slow the progression of kids’ nearsightedness.

Book your child’s eye exam today and learn how, together, we can protect their vision for a lifetime.
