Can you remember the last time you had a comprehensive eye exam? Have you noticed recent changes to your vision which are either subtle or not-so-subtle? There are many reasons why people should come in to our practice for eye exams and vision testing, and these are just two of them. It is very important for people to have periodic eye exams because there are many eye diseases that show no symptoms in the early stages. However, these eye problems can be stealing your sight without your even knowing it. For example, glaucoma is an eye disease which has no symptoms in the early stages. However, it can be causing permanent vision damage without your even knowing it. The good news is, that when glaucoma is diagnosed early, during a comprehensive eye exam, it can be easily treated so that you will never need to suffer vision loss from glaucoma. If you are interested in coming in to our practice for an eye exam in Ramsey, we will be happy to see you.
At Wyckoff Ophthalmology we are very happy to have an expert and highly trained ophthalmologist ready to provide you with exceptional eye care. Our ophthalmologist is Dr. Melanie Sinatra. Dr. Sinatra has been providing exemplary eye care for our patients for just about 20 years. When you visit our practice for an eye exam in Ramsey, our ophthalmologist will first check your visual acuity to see if you have any refractive error problems. If it is determined that you are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, our ophthalmologist will be able to write a new eyeglass or contact lens prescription for you which will have you seeing clearly and crisply once again.
During the course of your eye exam, our eye doctor will screen your eyes for many different eye diseases and disorders.
