Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible vision loss, often developing gradually without noticeable symptoms in its early stages. Known as the “silent thief of sight,” this group of eye diseases damages the optic nerve, typically due to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). At Monroe Vision Clinic, we emphasize the importance of early detection and modern treatment to help manage glaucoma and protect your long-term vision.
Contact lenses offer convenience, comfort, and clear vision without the need for glasses. However, choosing the right type of contact lenses depends on various factors, including your lifestyle, eye health, and personal preferences. Understanding your options and getting a professional contact lens exam and fitting is essential to ensure the best vision and comfort.
Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is becoming increasingly prevalent among children worldwide. This condition, where distant objects appear blurry while close-up vision remains clear, can worsen over time if left unmanaged. Fortunately, myopia management offers several effective treatment options designed to slow the progression of myopia and support long-term eye health.
A comprehensive eye exam is a thorough assessment of your visual health and overall eye function. It goes beyond a basic vision screening and provides a detailed evaluation of your eyes, allowing your eye care professional to detect and address any underlying issues. This comprehensive approach is crucial for maintaining optimal vision and identifying potential problems before they become more serious.
