Comprehensive Eye ExamsA comprehensive eye exam is a full exam to check both vision and ocular health. During this exam we start by checking a person's vision and exploring their need for glasses or contacts. We also check vital ocular signs to detect ocular conditions that might require further attention.

Pediatric Eye ExamsAt a pediatric eye exam, in addition to the standard comprehensive testing, we also check a child's eye focusing, alignment, and teaming to ensure that the eyes are functioning at their full potential. This is important to ensure that children are not being hindered in school or other activities.

Computer & Work Related ConditionsWhen on the computer for work, school, or otherwise there is a high demand on our eyes to maintain focus often for long periods of time. This continuous demand for focus, can cause fatigue and other challenges. Oftentimes, an adjustment to the glasses prescription, materials, and coatings can provide some relief.

Routine Contact LensesContact lenses have become very popular for patients of all ages. At Los Gatos Eye Care, each of our eye doctors is able to fit a wide variety of lenses to best suit each patient's needs. These include soft lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses, toric lenses, and multifocal lenses.

Emergency VisitsIn the event of an eye-related emergency, seeing an eye doctor is important in order to fully evaluate the eye and determine the necessary treatment and precautions. Such emergencies include: injury to the eye or around the eye, foreign-body in the eye, sudden onset red-eyes or itchy eyes, eye or eyelid swelling, sudden loss of vision, sudden change in vision, flashes, floaters, curtain over vision. These conditions should all be evaluated promptly.
