Nearly 80% of all information we receive is visual, therefore, efficient visual skills are a critically important part of learning, working, and playing. A person can have 20/20 vision and still have difficulty with important visual skills such as: Tracking, Focus and Fixation Peripheral Vision Eye Teaming Depth Perception Visual Perception Maintaining Attention Eye-Hand Coordination Common signs or symptoms of vision problems can include frequent headaches or eye strain, blurring of distance or near vision, avoidance of close work or visually demanding tasks, double vision, difficulty changing focus, dizziness, and much more. Dozens of studies involving thousands of children and adults demonstrate that when visual skills are enhanced through VT, then learning is easier, reading levels rise, and in some cases, IQ scores have increased. Vision therapy is a program of specifically designed vision exercises using various equipment and lenses to alleviate vision problems permanently. We offer a no-cost vision screening which can determine whether vision therapy will be helpful. It checks eye alignment, focusing, and eye movement. Our vision therapy program is generally four months long with weekly office visits. Each visit lasts approximately 40 minutes. We work on vision therapy exercises in the office and go over homework for the following week. Home vision therapy consists of a few exercises that are done five days a week and should not take more than 20 minutes a day. OPTOMAP RETINAL EXAM Our Optomap Retinal Exam can give you a much larger view (200 degrees) of the back of the eye - your retina - than conventional eye exams. The images can be taken without dilating your pupils, which for some patients, can be uncomfortable. The image of your retina can be viewed and used immediately by your Doctor as opposed to dilation which takes 15 to 20 minutes. The image that this provides your Doctor can help find problems that may otherwise go undetected. This also allows the image to be sent to a retinal specialist if needed. Ultra-wide view of the retina Comfortable and Quick Capture Non-invasive Provides permanent records for future comparison Does not require dilation so you can resume normal activities immediately InfantSEE PROGRAM The American Optometric Association and the Vision Care Institute of Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. have partnered to create InfantSEE, a no-cost public health program developed to provide professional eye care for infants nationwide. Dr. Curtis proudly participates in the InfantSEE program, offering early detection of potential eye and vision problems. A baby's first visit to an optometrist should happen between 6 and 12 months of age. This is a critical time for eye and vision development and early detection of any problems can help with long term vision. During the eye exam, the infant will sit on his or her parent's lap. Dr. Curtis uses different lights, toys, and lenses to check that the infant's eyes are working together and that there are no significant issues that will interfere with proper vision development. Specially formulated eye-drops are used to dilate the infant's pupils which afford Dr. Curtis a better look inside the eye to ensure good health. Infants generally find the eye exam painless and fun! Did you know that 1 out of 10 children is at risk from undiagnosed vision problems 56% of mothers and expectant mothers are not certain of when the most critical age is for the development of eyesight Check out their website here for further information - www.infantsee.org LASIK (Laser-Assisted in-Situ-Keratomileusis) Lasik uses a laser to reshape the cornea. It can be used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. We work with Pacific Laser Eye Center (PLEC) in Sacramento which uses the new LADAR TRACKER radar eye tracking systems. This system uses advanced laser beams capable of finer and more accurate treatments than any other laser system available today. PLEC also uses the CustomCornea wavefront technology to reduce optical aberrations which can cause problems such as glare or halos around lights. This technology customizes the laser procedure to your individual eyes. The wavefront technology results in superior vision which can sometimes mean better vision than you previously had with glasses or contact lenses. Dr. Yurko and Dr. Curtis work as a team with PLEC surgeons Dr. Richard Meister and Dr. Douglas Cooper. At EyeOptics Optometry Center, the doctors take careful pre-operative measurements which are combined with measurements taken at PLEC to ensure the best possible surgical results. Following surgery, Dr. Yurko and Dr. Curtis will carefully monitor the healing process through follow-up examinations. When considering Laser Vision Correction, the most important question to consider is where to have the procedure performed. When you choose Pacific Laser Eye Center for this life changing procedure, you are selecting an entire team of professionals from the various fields of eye care. Your surgeon is one of the most experienced in the region, selected by your local eye doctor for experience, background and outcomes. Pacific Laser Eye Center has also affiliated with UC Berkeley and Southern California College of Optometry two of the nation's leading optometric institutions, so you know we're staying on top of all the advances in the complex procedure of laser eye surgery. ON-SITE OPTICAL LABORATORY At EyeOptics Optometry Center we offer an on-site optical laboratory which allows us to custom make your glasses in as little as twenty minutes. Our lab manager, Bill Barber, has been cutting lenses to fit any frame since 1965. He has an extensive knowledge of all of the different lens materials and coatings available today and is more than willing to discuss the best options for your visual needs. DR.
