Eye Exams
Dr.
Jennifer Carr O.D. provides a thorough and comprehensive eye examination.
In addition to a glasses prescription, the exam will test your overall eye
health. She will test for Glaucoma, Macular degeneration, Cataracts, and
many other eye diseases. Dilation of the eyes, which allows for a more
thorough look inside the eyes, is included but not required.
Contact Lens Exams
In the past
few years there have been many technological advances in contact lens
products. Contact lenses have become healthier, more comfortable, and
easier to care for. New products for dryness, astigmatism and bifocal
correction have allowed those who were previously poor candidates for
contact lens wear, to see clearly and comfortably. Dr. Jennifer Carr O.D.
can help you find the lens type and wearing schedule to fit your needs.
LASIK
LASIK is a
surgical procedure intended to reduce a person's dependency on glasses or
contact lenses. It can treat a broad range of prescriptions such as
near-sightedness, far-sightedness, and astigmatism.
LASIK stands
for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis and is a procedure that
permanently changes the shape of the cornea, the clear covering of the
front of the eye, using an excimer laser. A knife, called a microkeratome,
is used to cut a flap in the cornea. A hinge is left at one end of this
flap. The flap is folded back revealing the stroma, the middlesection of
the cornea. Pulses from a computer-controlled laser vaporize a portion of
the stroma and the flap is replaced.
Dr. Jennifer
Carr O.D. takes a conservative approach to help to determine if LASIK is a
good solution for you. She can help to refer you to an experienced
surgeon and can be involved in your pre- and post-operative care.
