Preventive screening worth the drive
Glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy rarely cause noticeable symptoms until damage is done. An annual visit with digital retinal imaging is the single most reliable way to catch them early. For patients managing diabetes, a dedicated diabetic eye exam is essential every year and is the standard of care from the American Diabetes Association.
We keep pace with your Cascade primary care provider so retinal findings and Rx changes reach the right chart.
One trip, whole family covered
A 30-minute drive is easier when the whole family gets seen in the same visit. Tell us who is coming and what each person needs, kids, parents, grandparents, and we will schedule back-to-back so the trip up I-15 is worth it. Frame adjustments and minor repairs after your visit are complimentary for patients of the practice.
