"Many ocular and systemic conditions are often detected for the first time during an eye examination and frequently in patients who are symptom-free."

ARMD

"Open-angle glaucoma, which is a leading cause of blindness, is well-known to have no symptoms in its early stages."

Glaucomatous Optic Nerve

"Early detection will typically result in a significant improvement in the treatment and management of such conditions."

Cortical Cataract

"We also offer emergency assessments and minor exams for abnormal eye conditions or symptoms."

Ocular Disease Management

At the Mission Eye Clinic, our doctors have extensive training and experience in the management of ocular disease. In addition to the complete ocular health assessment you receive as part of your full optometric eye examination, we also offer emergency assessments and minor exams for abnormal eye conditions or symptoms (for example: red eyes/infections/inflammations, acute eye pain, sudden loss or decrease of vision, loss of peripheral vision, new flashing lights or floating spots, etc.). As optometrists, we are able to manage, co-manage, and if required make the appropriate referrals for all ocular conditions.
