Conditions We Treat

At Perspective Eye Care and Eye Wear, we strive to provide exceptional medical eye care to our patients. Below are some of the conditions our doctor treats. While this list constitutes some of the most common eye conditions we see, there are many other conditions that can affect your eyes. Many of these do not produce any visual symptoms, which is why it is important to have regular eye health examinations.
