Vision Problems Treated at Grand Eye Care
Introduction
In the field of vision care, it is essential to understand the different vision problems that individuals may encounter. At Grand Eye Care, under the expert guidance of David J Scholten, OD, PC, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of vision problems. With our emphasis on delivering top-notch eye care services, we are committed to helping patients overcome their vision-related challenges.
Common Vision Problems
Myopia (Nearsightedness)
Myopia is a common condition that causes difficulty in seeing objects from a distance. People with myopia typically have clear near vision but struggle to focus on objects farther away. At Grand Eye Care, we offer comprehensive solutions to correct myopia, including prescription glasses and contact lenses.
Hyperopia (Farsightedness)
Hyperopia is another prevalent vision problem where individuals struggle to see objects up close. It occurs when the eyeball is shorter than normal or the cornea is not sufficiently curved. At our clinic, we provide personalized treatments for hyperopia, ensuring patients gain clear vision at all distances.
Astigmatism
Astigmatism is a condition that results in blurry and distorted vision. It occurs when the cornea or lens has an irregular shape, preventing light from focusing properly on the retina. At Grand Eye Care, we employ advanced diagnostic techniques to detect and correct astigmatism, offering personalized solutions to enhance visual clarity.
Presbyopia
Presbyopia is an age-related vision disorder that affects individuals over the age of 40. It leads to the gradual loss of near vision, making it difficult to focus on close-up objects. At our clinic, we provide a range of options to manage presbyopia, including multifocal glasses, bifocal contact lenses, and other innovative treatments.
Cataracts
Cataracts refer to the clouding of the eye's natural lens, leading to progressive vision impairment. They commonly occur with age but can also be caused by trauma or certain medical conditions. At Grand Eye Care, we offer comprehensive cataract evaluations and surgeries, providing patients with clearer vision and an improved quality of life.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often caused by increased pressure in the eye. Without proper treatment, glaucoma can lead to permanent vision loss. Our dedicated team at Grand Eye Care specializes in managing and treating glaucoma, preventing further damage and preserving vision.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration, also known as AMD, is a degenerative eye disease affecting the central part of the retina. It leads to a loss of sharp and central vision, making everyday activities challenging. At our clinic, we offer advanced diagnostic techniques and treatment options to help patients manage macular degeneration effectively.
Dry Eye Syndrome
Dry eye syndrome is a condition that occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or the tears evaporate too quickly. It can cause discomfort, blurred vision, and a gritty sensation in the eyes. Grand Eye Care offers comprehensive evaluations to identify the underlying causes of dry eye syndrome and provides personalized treatments for long-term relief.
Strabismus
Strabismus, commonly known as crossed eyes, occurs when the eyes do not align properly. It can happen due to issues with eye muscles or nerves controlling the eye movements. At David J Scholten, OD, PC, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of strabismus, helping individuals achieve proper eye alignment and improve overall vision.
Amblyopia
Amblyopia, often referred to as lazy eye, is a condition that occurs when one eye has significantly better visual acuity than the other. It can arise due to various factors, including strabismus, refractive errors, or eye diseases. Our expert team at Grand Eye Care offers personalized treatment plans to improve visual acuity in the affected eye.
