What Eye Care Services Does Wellington Vision Care Offer?

We are committed to providing exceptional eye care services to our community at Wellington Vision Care. Whether you need a routine eye exam, treatment for a complex eye condition, or stylish new eyewear, we have you covered. 

Our team of experienced optometrists and staff ensures your vision remains clear and your eyes healthy. Here's an overview of our comprehensive services at Wellington Vision Care.

Comprehensive Eye Exams

‍Regular eye exams are the cornerstone of maintaining good vision and overall eye health. Our comprehensive eye exams are designed to evaluate your vision and detect any early signs of eye diseases. 

During an exam, we assess visual acuity, check for refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, and screen for common conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.

We also take the time to understand your lifestyle and visual needs, whether you're a student, an avid reader, or spend long hours in front of a computer screen. This personalized approach ensures that we provide tailored recommendations to optimize your vision.

‍

Contact Lens Fittings and Consultations

We offer specialized fittings and consultations for those who prefer contact lenses over traditional glasses. Whether you're new to contact lenses or looking to switch to a different type, we can help. 

Our team ensures you receive the correct lens type and fit for your eyes, including options for daily wear, extended wear, and specialty lenses for conditions like astigmatism or dry eye.

We also offer training sessions to help new contact lens wearers feel comfortable and confident. From insertion and removal techniques to proper care and maintenance, we guide you every step of the way.

Pediatric Eye Care

Children's eye health is crucial for their development and learning. At Wellington Vision Care, we provide comprehensive pediatric eye care services tailored to the unique needs of young patients. 

We support your child's visual health, from vision screenings to diagnosing and treating conditions like lazy eye (amblyopia) and crossed eyes (strabismus).

We make the experience fun and engaging, ensuring children feel at ease during their visits. Early detection and treatment of vision issues can significantly improve a child's academic and social success.

Treatment of Eye Diseases and Conditions

Our experienced optometrists are equipped to diagnose and manage various eye diseases and conditions. These include:

• Glaucoma: A group of eye conditions that can damage the optic nerve, often due to high eye pressure. Early detection is key to preserving vision.
• Cataracts are clouding of the eye's natural lens that can impair vision. We offer pre- and post-operative care for cataract surgery.
• Macular Degeneration: A leading cause of vision loss in older adults, affecting the central part of the retina.
• Dry Eye Syndrome is a common condition that occurs when your eyes don't produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly.

We proactively approach eye health by educating our patients about risk factors, prevention strategies, and treatment options. Whether you need medication, lifestyle adjustments, or surgical referrals, we're here to guide you.

Emergency Eye Care

Accidents and unexpected eye problems can happen at any time. That's why we provide emergency eye care services for issues such as:

• Eye injuries
• Sudden vision loss
• Foreign objects in the eye
• Eye infections

Our team quickly addresses urgent concerns, alleviating discomfort and preventing further complications. If you're experiencing an eye emergency, don't hesitate to contact us immediately.

LASIK Consultations and Co-Management

If you're considering LASIK or other refractive surgery to reduce your dependence on glasses or contact lenses, we can help. Our team offers pre-operative consultations to determine if you're a good candidate for the procedure. 

We also provide post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results. We coordinate your care closely with trusted LASIK surgeons, giving you peace of mind.

Eyewear and Optical Services

Your eyewear should improve your vision and reflect your style. At Wellington Vision Care, our optical boutique offers a wide selection of high-quality frames and lenses to suit every taste and budget. From classic designs to the latest trends, we have something for everyone.

Our knowledgeable staff is here to help you choose the perfect pair of glasses. We also provide:

• Custom lens options, including blue light-blocking lenses and progressive lenses
• Repairs and adjustments to keep your glasses comfortable and functional
• Sunglasses with or without prescription lenses for UV protection

Myopia Management

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is becoming increasingly common, especially among children. Our myopia management program is designed to slow the progression of this condition, reducing the risk of future complications such as retinal detachment or glaucoma.

We offer treatments such as orthokeratology (Ortho-K), specialized contact lenses worn overnight to reshape the cornea, and atropine eye drops. Our goal is to help patients maintain healthy vision for life.

Digital Eye Strain Relief

With the rise of digital screens in our daily lives, many people experience symptoms of digital eye strain, such as headaches, blurred vision, and dry eyes. At Wellington Vision Care, we provide practical solutions to alleviate these symptoms, including:

• Customized computer glasses
• Tips for proper screen ergonomics
• Eye exercises to reduce strain
