Eye Disease Diagnosis & Management
More than 40 million Americans over 40 are either legally blind or have low vision. The primary causes of blindness and vision loss in the US? Age-related eye diseases like age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy.
Since many eye diseases, such as the 4 mentioned, have no early warning signs, prevention is the best way to protect your eyesight. Undergoing routine eye exams (even if you feel fine or have good vision) will allow us to monitor your ocular health over time and detect even the smallest changes that could indicate a potential problem.
We perform several tests using advanced diagnostics at East Fishkill Eye Care to determine the overall health of your eyes and strength of your vision. These tests give us a good overview of your visual system, allowing us to detect and accurately diagnose early signs of eye disease, which could save your eyesight.
Emergency Eye Care
At East Fishkill Eye Care we are happy to help our patients for problems that need medical attention on an urgent basis.
Call us if:
- You have a foreign body.
- You have a cut or scratch on the surface of your eye.
- You have sustained trauma to the area around your eye.
- You experience sudden, unexpected changes in your vision.
- You have unusual itching, pain or burning.
- You have conjunctivitis or an eye infection.
For a medical eye emergency, such as severe eye trauma, eye puncture, or chemical burn, immediately call 911 or seek treatment at an emergency room.
Contact Lens Exams
Contact lenses are an excellent alternative to eyeglasses. They correct refractive errors, like hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. However, before you can make the switch, you must undergo a contact lens exam and fitting.
Because contacts sit directly on the surface of the eye, contacts come with unique risks you don’t have with traditional eyeglasses. We will assess your ocular health during a contact lens exam to determine if contacts are appropriate for your eyes. And a thorough fitting will ensure these lenses will fit well and provide clear, comfortable vision. We will also teach you how to insert, remove, and properly care for your lenses.
East Fishkill Eye Care is proud to offer a range of specialty contacts for unique eye issues or even hard-to-fit eyes. We have a range of contacts for even the hardest-to-fit eyes, including:
- Multifocal lenses
- Toric lenses
- Rigid gas-permeable lenses
- Hybrid lenses
- Scleral lenses
- Keratoconus lenses
We offer many services at East Fishkill Eye Care, all designed to provide you and your family with the highest-quality eye care in the Fishkill area. Please book your eye exam with us today and see what we have to offer.
