Information on Your Eye Health
A cataract is the clouding of the eye's natural lens. A common surgical procedure involves removing that cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear lens. Twin Tiers Eye Care is one of the region's leading providers of cataract surgery services.
Diabetes is associated with higher incidence of cataracts, glaucoma and retinal disease. Diabetics require careful monitoring and management by a skilled eye doctor. Thousands of diabetic patients are cared for by Twin Tiers Eye Care doctors.
Glaucoma is a disease in which the optic nerve can become damaged by pressure inside the eye. Like blood pressure, the only way to determine and monitor the pressure in the eye is by using specialized tools to measure it. Glaucoma can be treated by taking medicine, performing laser surgery or traditional surgery.
Dry eyes can be more than a nuisance. Fortunately, treatments have gotten better over the past few years. The doctors at Twin Tiers Eye Care would be happy to discuss your options with you.
Allergies can cause eyes to become red and itchy. If allergies are a problem for you, discuss your options with your Twin Tiers Eye Care doctor.
Exams to determine the prescription needed for your best vision, and an overall assessment of your eye health are considered "routine" exams, while the examination of eyes to evaluate or treat eye diseases or complaints are considered "medical" exams.
Eyeglasses range in cost and quality from very cheap and poorly made to very expensive and exotically designed. At Twin Tiers Eye Care, we focus on high quality, high value frames and lenses - the kind that look good and wear well, but don't break the bank. And you won't find any pricing gimmicks, like "buy one, get one". Our patients are smart enough to know that doubling the price and then offering one for "free" is a bad deal.
Contact lens fittings are available at Twin Tiers Eye Care. Contact lens patients, whose prescriptions and accounts are current, may order directly from our wholesale vendor at the same prices that we would pay. If you choose to do that, please remember that the transaction is between you and the vendor. We don't receive any payment for that transaction and are not a party to it.
