All You Need to Know

 

Experience a thorough evaluation of your vision and eye health with our comprehensive eye exams in Buffalo. Utilizing advanced technology, we go beyond standard checkups to assess your visual performance and overall ocular wellness. Each examination is meticulously designed to provide insights into your eye health, enabling us to identify any potential issues early on and customize treatment to meet your specific requirements.

 

We are proud to partner with numerous insurance providers, including VSP, EyeMed, BCBS, Medica, HealthPartners, UnitedHealthcare, and more, facilitating your access to the care you need. Our open-access services for various vision plans, including Davis and Spectera, further ensure that our services remain available to a wide range of patients. Your eye health is our top priority, and we are dedicated to delivering a comprehensive evaluation that addresses your vision needs.

Patient History + Background

A comprehensive patient health history is crucial for your eye exam, serving as the foundation for accurate diagnosis and tailored care. By providing detailed information, you enable our doctors to identify any conditions that may require attention, including your medical background and relevant family history, such as diabetes or high blood pressure, which can influence your vision. It's equally important to disclose any medication allergies to prevent adverse reactions. We also take into account environmental factors, such as UV exposure, allergens, and prolonged screen time, that could impact your eye health. With a thorough understanding of your health profile, our doctors can personalize their approach, fostering better long-term outcomes and a proactive strategy for maintaining your eye health.

Visual Acuity

Our experienced doctors evaluate your visual clarity and distance acuity with the Snellen Eye Chart. While seated at a designated distance, you will read letters or symbols that progressively decrease in size as you move down the chart. This assessment measures the visual acuity of each eye, both with and without corrective lenses. For children and patients who are non-verbal or bilingual, we provide various specialized charts, symbols, and techniques to ensure that the results are accurate and reliable.

Refraction + Binocular Vision

During eye exams, refraction—also known as the ``one or two`` test—is a crucial component in figuring out the exact prescription required for the best possible vision. Using their experience, our experts determine the ideal ratio of comfort to sharpness, then craft a prescription that works for your everyday activities. In order to make sure that your vision suits your lifestyle requirements, we also evaluate the coordination between your eyes. Providing you with a comfortable and clear vision for all area of your life is our main goal.

Basic Color Vision Evaluation

Our specialists perform a comprehensive screening to assess for color blindness, inherited color vision deficiencies, and other eye health issues that could affect your color perception in the future. In addition to using the standard Ishihara color plates, we incorporate several advanced techniques to ensure a thorough evaluation of your eye health. **An essential aspect of a complete eye exam involves assessing the overall health of your eyes. We conduct various tests to identify any existing or potential conditions impacting both the internal and external structures of the eye. Detecting undiagnosed issues early is crucial, as they can lead to significant long-term consequences for your vision and overall health, making early detection vital for maintaining optimal eye wellness.

Slit Lamp Evaluation

Our team employs a slit lamp to conduct a thorough examination of both the front and back of the eye. This instrument, paired with a high-intensity light, allows our doctors to perform an in-depth assessment of the internal and external structures of the eye. Each slit lamp in our office is equipped with a DSLR MVC camera, which enables our specialists to capture detailed images. These images are invaluable for identifying a range of visual issues, including cataracts, conjunctivitis, glaucoma, melanoma, and carcinomas, while also enhancing your understanding of your eye health.

 

Early detection and treatment of eye conditions are essential for preserving excellent vision throughout your life. We believe that educating patients significantly influences their commitment to annual eye exams, which are crucial for preventing potential vision loss. The eyes offer a unique, non-invasive perspective into overall health, allowing us to detect systemic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, melanoma, lupus, thyroid disorders, and even cancer during a comprehensive eye exam.

Contact Lens Evaluations

During your comprehensive eye exam in Buffalo, we include a thorough assessment for contact lenses. Our eye care professionals will evaluate your lifestyle and any relevant health factors to help you choose the best lenses for your needs. With the latest developments in contact lens technology, we provide a wide variety of options tailored to your vision requirements, such as daily and monthly disposables, toric lenses designed for astigmatism, multifocal and monovision lenses, toric multifocals, scleral lenses, Ortho-K lenses, rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, and hybrid designs.

 

For those who are either new to wearing contact lenses or returning after a break, we offer individualized training sessions. We recognize that adapting to contact lenses can be overwhelming, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the proper methods. Our focused training with knowledgeable technicians is aimed at building your confidence and ensuring you are comfortable with both inserting and removing your lenses.
