Optometry
True Health’s Optometry Department offers affordable vision care focused on the health of the eye. Our Optometrist performs eye exams and vision tests to check for abnormalities that may or may not be affecting your vision. Based on your exam, the Optometrist may prescribe glasses and/or soft contact lenses.
In addition to checking for glasses, the optometrist will evaluate the health of your eyes for diseases such as:
- Glaucoma: a chronic eye disease caused by damage to the optic nerve, which can lead to vision loss. Macular Degeneration: problems related to the retina of the eye.
- Cataracts: a cloudy area in the lens of your eye.
- Diabetic Retinopathy: eye condition that can cause vision loss and blindness in people who have diabetes.
- Hypertensive Retinopathy: eye condition that occurs when the blood vessels supplying blood to the retina in the back of the eye become damaged.
- Retinal Detachments: an emergency in which a thin layer of tissue (the retina) at the back of the eye pulls away from the layer of blood vessels that provides it with oxygen and nutrients.
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of blindness and reduced vision. We recommend all diabetic patients have yearly eye exams to monitor their eye health.
True Health’s Optometrist evaluates patients starting at age 4. Evaluating a child’s vision and eye alignment (eyes look in same direction) at an early age can help with early detection and treatment. This can help minimize conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye). Early treatment is important to decrease vision problems and avoid falling behind in school. We recommend ALL children have an eye exam before starting school.
