At Apex Eye, we believe that everyone deserves the absolute best in eye care. We are proud to care for the vision and eye health of patients in the Frisco area.
A complete eye exam includes a thorough examination of your eyes and typically takes less than an hour to complete. Your eye doctor will use a variety of tests to evaluate the health of your eyes and check your vision. Not all tests are required for each patient.
A regular eye exam is essential for everyone. Serious medical conditions, such as cancer, stroke, high cholesterol, diabetes, and high blood pressure can be detected through an eye exam, allowing patients to seek treatment early. An eye exam is also your opportunity to ask questions about your vision or eye health and learn more about your options for vision correction or any necessary eye care treatments.
Your eyes are a window to your health. Our practice proudly offers a quick and comfortable optional test that enables an enhanced view of your retina to help protect your sight and identify potential eye or general health issues.
An Optomap® is a detailed digital image of the retina produced by Optos® scanning laser technology. This imaging enables you and your eye doctor to see your retina in rich detail and can be saved to use for future comparisons to monitor the health of your retina.
Everyone should have routine eye exams. The Academy of Ophthalmology recommends that routine eye exams are essential, even if your eyes and vision seem fine. From childhood vision screenings to your senior years, it’s important to detect eye diseases early. Early treatment can help preserve your vision.
