Ortho-K Fittings & Myopia Management

Specializing in non-surgical myopia control, we fit orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses utilizing advanced technologies from Johnson & Johnson and Zeiss. Suitable for children and adults, Ortho-K lenses are worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea and control the progression of nearsightedness. We work closely with each patient to monitor results, enhance comfort, and provide ongoing support throughout your treatment.

Retinal Imaging & Diagnostics

SEE.SAW.SEEN OPTOMETRY offers advanced digital imaging for precise retinal health assessment. Retinal imaging assists in early identification and monitoring of eye conditions, providing a detailed view beyond a standard exam. These diagnostic insights are especially valuable for patients with diabetes, high myopia, or a family history of eye disease. We explain each result, empowering you to make informed decisions on your ocular health.

Understanding the scope of care

Comprehensive optometry involves more than acuity testing. We use clinical imaging, advanced lens fitting, and holistic management of myopia and other refractive errors. While we provide diagnostics and non-surgical therapies, certain surgical or complex treatments may require referral or co-management.

  • We manage myopia and refractive errors with modern methods.
  • Digital imaging aids in early detection of ocular issues.
  • We partner on your long-term eye health strategy.
  • We refer to eye surgeons or specialists if advanced care is needed.

04 / A little more detail

Good questions.
Clear answers.

What types of eye exams do you offer?

We offer comprehensive eye exams for adults and children, which include vision testing, eye health evaluation, and screening for conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Exams are tailored to your age, lifestyle, and medical history, with extra attention for those at risk of visual conditions. Advanced imaging is available as needed.

Who may benefit from Ortho-K lenses?

Ortho-K lenses are suitable for both children and adults, but are particularly recommended for young patients experiencing progressive myopia. Candidates for Ortho-K include those who prefer a non-surgical approach to vision correction, athletes, or anyone seeking freedom from daytime glasses or contacts. We provide individual consultation to assess your suitability.

Do you provide sports eyewear and specialty lenses?

Yes. We provide a curated selection of sports-specific eyewear and specialty prescription lenses to support visual comfort and performance in athletics or demanding environments. Our optician will help you find frames and lens designs that enhance both safety and vision for your activities.

Which insurance plans are accepted?

We currently accept VSP, Tricare, and Medicare PPO plans. Bring your insurance details with you, and our staff will clarify coverage, help maximize your benefits, and answer any questions regarding claims or eligibility. If you’re unsure, contact us in advance for assistance.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Please bring your current glasses and/or contact lenses, a copy of your most recent prescriptions, your insurance card (if applicable), and a list of any medications you use. If you have specific symptoms or a family history of eye disease, let us know so we can tailor your assessment accordingly.

Is retinal imaging part of all eye exams?

Retinal imaging is recommended for many patients, especially those with risk factors such as diabetes, high myopia, or a family history of ocular disease. While not mandatory for every screening, we advocate its use for thorough, early detection and monitoring. The need for retinal imaging will be discussed during your consultation.
