Our deepest sympathy goes out to Neil and Harvey on the loss of their mother Rose. Rose and Kieve came in for an eye examination my first week in practice back in 1974. Kieve was wearing a black leather jacket with the Neil Diamond logo on back. He was such a very proud father and before he passed away I would see him and sometimes Harvey around town in their black leather Diamond jackets. We became friends over the years and Debi and I were fortunate to join them at many o...f Neil’s concerts and attend their private after parties following his performance when he was in town. Rose was such a proud mother! During Neil’s concerts, when everyone got up to sing and dance with him, she would always turn around and look at the audience to make sure everybody was having a good time. When satisfied, she would have a big smile on her face and turn toward the stage. The dozen or so concerts we attended with the Diamonds, Rose’s picture would always appear somewhere in Neil’s Concert Program. She was so proud of that. I continued taking care of Rose’s eyes until a few years ago when she got sick. Rose was an incredible lady and we were so lucky to have known her. She will be missed by all. See more

Summer vacation is around the corner and for children this means more time spent outside playing, swimming, or going to the beach. All of this outside activity increases their exposure to ultraviolet rays which is of particular concern because the lens of a child allows 70% more UV rays to reach the retina than in an adult. This may put them at increased risk of developing debilitating eye diseases such as cataracts or macular degeneration as adults. Children with sunglasses ...Continue reading

ARE YOU DUE FOR YOUR ANNUAL EYE EXAMINATION??????? Why is an Eye Exam so Important? Many of us believe that if we can see well, we don’t need to visit an eye doctor. While good vision is clearly important, an eye exam does more than just test your vision. In fact, your eyes can be portals that offer a glimpse of your overall health. In fact, many diseases show early signs in the eyes, including cardiovascular health and diabetes. So a comprehensive eye exam can help you at an...y age: Vision and learning are closely linked. Children don’t know what ‘normal’ vision is like, so they may not know to complain. Children’s eyes change rapidly as they grow, so eye care is important. Around the age 40, most of us have difficulty reading due to Presbyopia. A natural part of the aging process, presbyopia makes it harder to read small print. Computer monitors become more challenging as well. While drugstore readers may help, your eye doctor offers a range of options to fit your lifestyle. Many eye diseases, including glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, have no symptoms in the early stages. If left untreated, the vision loss is usually irreversible. Seeing your eye doctor on a regular basis can protect your vision through early treatment. A comprehensive eye exam, offered only by an ophthalmologist or optometrist, looks at both eye health as well as your vision. Your doctor will check for: Refractive error: nearsighted, farsighted or astigmatism Focusing problems, including presbyopia Other vision problems, such as strabismus, amblyopia or binocular vision Eye diseases, such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy Other diseases, such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol, can often be detected in an eye exam While tests will vary based on your doctor and your medical history, most comprehensive eye exams include the following: Visual Acuity to assess the sharpness of your vision, usually using the Big E or Snellen chart. Visual fields test, to determine if you have blind spots or peripheral vision issues. Cover Test, which can identify strabismus or binocular vision problems. Retinoscopy, autorefractor or aberrometer, to approximate your eyeglass prescription. Refraction, to fine tune the final eyeglass prescription using a phoropter. Slit Lamp exam to detect common eye diseases and conditions. The instrument allows your doctor to examine the structure of your eye to assess its health. Glaucoma test, known as tonometry, measures the pressure within your eye. Dilation of the pupil and ophthalmoscopy to examine the optic nerve, retina and blood vessels.
