The Importance of Eye Exams in Detecting Eye Disease

Routine comprehensive eye exams are about more than just updating your glasses or contact lens prescription—they’re essential to spotting early signs of eye diseases that could lead to vision loss.

We use diagnostic tools like fundus photography and OCT (optical coherence tomography) to look beneath the surface and monitor the health of your eyes over time.

Managing Eye Disease to Protect Your Vision

While some eye conditions can’t be cured, many can be successfully managed to slow progression and preserve vision. Our experienced optometrists, Dr. Pamela Brown and Dr. Lisa Chute, work closely with you and, when necessary, with trusted ophthalmology partners to create a care plan tailored to your

Glaucoma: Early Detection Is Key

Often called the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to high eye pressure. It can develop slowly, without obvious symptoms, until permanent vision loss occurs.

Symptoms of later-stage glaucoma can include:

Blurred vision
Patchy blind spots
Tunnel vision

We perform glaucoma testing using fundus photography, OCT imaging, and intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements during your eye exam.

If diagnosed early, glaucoma can often be managed successfully with medicated eye drops, laser treatment, or surgical options via co-management with specialists.

Cataracts: Managing a Common Condition

Cataracts occur when the eye’s natural lens becomes cloudy, causing vision to become blurry, dim, or distorted. They are a natural part of aging, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with poor vision.

Symptoms of cataracts may include:

Blurred or hazy vision
Difficulty seeing at night
Sensitivity to glare
Fading or yellowing of colors

We monitor the development of cataracts during your routine exams. When needed, we refer patients for cataract surgery, a highly effective procedure that helps restore clear vision.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)

AMD affects the central part of the retina (the macula) and can impact your ability to read, drive, and recognize faces. It is a leading cause of vision loss in people over 50.

Signs of AMD may include:

Blurred central vision
Difficulty seeing fine details
Straight lines appearing wavy

Through regular monitoring with OCT imaging and lifestyle recommendations, we can help patients manage AMD. For more advanced cases, we coordinate care with retina specialists for additional treatment options.s. When needed, we refer patients for cataract surgery, a highly effective procedure that helps restore clear vision.

Learn more about how we test and manage AMD.

Diabetic Eye Disease Management

People with diabetes are at a higher risk for a range of eye problems, including diabetic retinopathy. This condition occurs when high blood sugar damages the blood vessels in the retina, potentially leading to vision loss if not managed.

Signs of diabetic retinopathy can include:

Blurred vision
Dark spots or floaters
Difficulty seeing at night

Regular diabetic eye exams allow us to catch signs of diabetic retinopathy early.
