Our goal is to make every visit positive and educational so you can make confident decisions about your care.

Why Annual Eye Exams Matter

Eye exams do more than update your prescription. They allow your optometrist to evaluate your overall eye health and detect early signs of conditions that may not show symptoms right away. Early detection often leads to faster treatment and better outcomes.

Regular eye exams help with:

  • Updating prescriptions for clear and comfortable vision
  • Detecting early signs of eye diseases
  • Addressing digital eye strain from screen use
  • Supporting healthy vision for children as they grow
  • Identifying vision-related learning challenges
  • Monitoring changes caused by aging or medical conditions

Your vision is central to your daily life, so consistent eye care is one of the most important ways to protect long-term eye health.

What Does an Optometrist Do?

Optometrists are primary eye care providers who diagnose, treat, and manage conditions that affect your vision and overall eye health. They perform comprehensive eye exams, prescribe glasses and contact lenses, detect medical eye conditions, and provide ongoing care for patients of all ages.

At 2020 Advanced Eye Care, our services include:

  • Routine vision exams
  • Contact lens fittings and evaluations
  • Pediatric eye care
  • Medical eye care for conditions such as dry eye and allergies
  • Monitoring and treatment for chronic conditions, including glaucoma and diabetic eye disease
  • Referrals to specialists when advanced care or surgery is needed

Because we take a personalized approach, our recommendations are tailored to your needs, daily habits, and long-term vision goals.

What to Expect During Your Eye Exam

Our exams are thorough, comfortable, and designed to meet your needs. During your visit, we may evaluate:

  • Visual acuity, or how clearly you see at different distances
  • Eye alignment and movement
  • Depth perception
  • Peripheral vision
  • Focusing and tracking ability
  • Internal and external eye health
  • Eye pressure, which helps screen for glaucoma
  • Retinal and optic nerve health through advanced imaging

If you wear glasses or contacts, we will update your prescription and discuss eyewear options that match your lifestyle. If you are new to contact lenses, we provide hands-on training to ensure you feel confident using and caring for them.

We take time to explain each step of the exam and answer any questions you may have so you feel informed and comfortable.

As a local family-owned business, our approach to eye care is centered around trust, relationships, and personalized attention. We take pride in offering a level of care that larger corporate offices simply cannot match. Every patient receives time, communication, and care tailored specifically to them. Our community-focused values guide everything we do, from detailed exams to helping you choose the right eyewear.

Modern Technology for Better Eye Care

At 2020 Advanced Eye Care, we use modern diagnostic technology to provide precise and reliable care. Tools such as retinal imaging, OCT scans, and corneal mapping allow us to detect changes early and create a clear picture of your eye health. These tools help us monitor conditions over time and personalize your treatment plan.

If your condition requires treatment beyond our scope or surgical intervention, we will connect you with trusted ophthalmologists and specialists. We coordinate referrals carefully and remain involved in your long-term care, ensuring a smooth and supported experience from start to finish.

New Patient FAQ

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please bring your current glasses or contact lenses, a list of any medications you take, your insurance cards, and any previous eye health records if available. This information helps us provide the most accurate and personalized care.

How long will my first eye exam take?

Most new patient visits take longer than a routine follow up because we take time to review your eye and medical history, perform a full exam, and discuss your vision needs. Plan for about one hour for your appointment.

Will my eyes be dilated during the exam?

Dilation may be recommended to allow a more complete view of the retina and optic nerve. Your doctor will let you know if dilation is necessary based on your symptoms, medical history, or initial test results.

Does 2020 Advanced Eye Care accept my insurance?

We accept many medical and vision insurance plans. Our team can help verify your benefits before your appointment so you know what to expect. If you have questions about coverage, feel free to contact our office.

What is the difference between a routine vision exam and a medical eye exam?

A routine exam checks your vision and updates your prescription. A medical exam evaluates symptoms or diagnosed conditions such as dry eye, redness, diabetes, glaucoma concerns, or sudden changes in vision. Medical visits are billed through your medical insurance.

Can I get a prescription for glasses and contacts at my first visit?

Yes. If you are a good candidate for both glasses and contacts, we can provide updated prescriptions during the same visit. Contact lens fittings may require additional testing and training.

I am new to contact lenses. Will I learn how to put them in?

Yes. If you choose to wear contacts, we provide hands-on training to teach you how to safely insert, remove, and care for your lenses. We make sure you feel confident before leaving the office.

How often should I schedule eye exams?

Most adults should have a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years, depending on their age, vision needs, and medical history. Patients with certain conditions may need more frequent monitoring.

Do you offer care for children and teens?

Yes. We provide complete pediatric eye care, including vision exams, diagnostics, and eyewear services for children of all ages.

What happens if I need specialized treatment?

If your exam reveals a condition that requires advanced or surgical care, we will provide a referral to a trusted ophthalmologist or specialist. We coordinate care closely to support you through every step.
