Ocean Eye Care offers a range of specialized medical testing aimed at assessing and maintaining optimal eye health and vision. From comprehensive eye exams to advanced diagnostic procedures including retinal imaging, visual field testing, and intraocular pressure measurements, we provide detailed evaluations tailored to each patients needs. Our goal is to detect and manage various eye conditions early on, including glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, keratoconus, and other diseases, ensuring both optimal eye health and vision for all our patients.

When you visit Ocean Eye Care for an eye exam, there is a possibility that your eyes may be dilated. Dilating the pupils helps us to thoroughly examine the health of the retina, optic nerve, and other parts of the eye. This allows us to detect any early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, or diabetic retinopathy.

Each exam is personalized to your needs, so if dilation is necessary, we'll administer special eye drops that widen the pupils. After dilation, your vision may become blurry, especially for reading up close. Your eyes may also become more sensitive to light for a few hours. We recommend bringing sunglasses and arranging for a ride if you're concerned about driving after the exam. However, dilation is a quick procedure, and any side effects are temporary. If you have any concerns, feel free to ask your eye doctor before the exam! 

We also utilize cutting-edge photography to capture the retina. This can be a sufficient alternative for most routine and healthy patients.  Read more in the Exams & Services page.
