Tips From Your Eye Doctor for Remote E-learning
With the new “normal” of remote learning for the majority of our school age children, I wanted to share some very important tips to minimize the eyestrain that may occur with increased prolonged technology use.
Millions of Americans suffer from dry eye, a condition that causes discomfort and may even lead to complications. There are many causes of dry eye such as screen time, weather, age, medications, and medical conditions. At our dry eye center, we utilize the most advanced technology to diagnose the cause of your dry eye by looking at the composition of your tears, the health of your glands, and much more. Once we understand the root cause of your discomfort, our eye doctors will recommend a treatment option that will not only address the symptoms but also the underlying cause. As a leading dry eye center, we use sophisticated technology such as Lipiflow, Blephex, and Amniotic membranes, in addition to special contact lenses such as custom scleral lenses.
Myopia (nearsightedness) is a condition that develops at a very young age and continues to worsen over time. If detected early, the adequate procedure can be carried out to slow down the progression of myopia. This is extremely important as children with medium or high myopia are at 2200% greater risk of retinal detachment, and severely increased the risk of other vision-threatening eye diseases
We offer various advanced procedures such as Ortho-K, multifocal contacts to help reduce the progression of myopia in children.
At Forsight vision we fit custom scleral lenses for Keratoconus, post LASIK eye surgery complications, and corneal irregularities. The Scleral Lens provides superior comfort because of its unique design where it rests on the sclera (white of the eye) while creating a tear-reservoir by vaulting over the cornea. The lenses provide exceptional comfort and vision for even the hardest to fit patients.
Whether your child is experiencing conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus, excess or insufficient convergence, focusing/accommodation problems, or eye-tracking difficulties, our custom-tailed vision therapy procedures are will help your child achieve their full potential.
