Comprehensive Medical Eye Exams
A medical eye exam evaluates more than your prescription. We assess eye health, review risk factors, and use advanced diagnostics when appropriate to look for signs of disease, inflammation, and changes that can affect long-term vision. You will receive clear explanations and recommendations that reflect your symptoms, health history, and visual demands.
Dry Eye Center
Dry eye can cause burning, irritation, fluctuating vision, and discomfort that affects work, screen time, and daily routines. Our dry eye care begins with a detailed evaluation to identify what is driving symptoms, then moves to targeted treatment and at-home strategies designed around your condition and lifestyle. The goal is improved comfort, better visual consistency, and protection of the ocular surface.
Glaucoma often develops without obvious symptoms, which is why routine screening and consistent monitoring matter. Our eye doct assess risk factors, measure eye pressure, evaluate optic nerve health, and track changes over time using advanced testing. If glaucoma is diagnosed or suspected, we provide ongoing management and coordinated care with specialists when needed to help protect vision.
If you are planning or recovering from eye surgery, coordinated care can help ensure a smoother experience and clearer follow-up. We work alongside ophthalmic surgeons for appropriate cases, supporting pre-surgical assessments, post-operative visits, and ongoing monitoring after you are cleared. Our role is to help keep your care organized, consistent, and connected.
Diabetes can affect the eyes long before vision changes are noticeable. Regular diabetic eye exams allow us to monitor the retina for early signs of damage, document changes over time, and coordinate care with your medical providers when appropriate. If treatment or referral is needed, we explain next steps clearly so you know what to expect.
Evaluation for Sudden Eye Concerns
New symptoms such as a painful red eye, light sensitivity, sudden blur, or an eye injury should be evaluated promptly. During office hours, call (703) 553-1094 so our team can guide next steps. If symptoms are severe or you cannot reach us, seek emergency medical care right away.
Red Eye, Infection, and Inflammation Care
We evaluate symptoms such as redness, irritation, discharge, and light sensitivity to identify possible causes and recommend appropriate treatment. Clear instructions and follow-up guidance help support recovery and comfort.
Monitoring for Cataracts and Age-Related Changes
As eyes age, vision can shift, and glare can become more noticeable. We monitor changes, explain their implications for daily life, and coordinate referrals when surgical evaluation becomes appropriate.
Specialty Contact Lens Support
Some patients need more than standard contact lenses. Our optometrist provides fitting and follow-up for specialty options when appropriate, using precise measurements to support comfort and stable vision.
If you have ongoing symptoms, a new diagnosis, or concerns about changes in your vision, a medical eye care visit can help you understand what is happening and what options may be appropriate. Our Arlington eye doctor will explain findings in plain language and outline the next steps that support long-term eye health.
