Dr. Barad and Dr. Cecchini perform medical eye exams on patients to monitor eye health conditions and to treat diseases of the eye.  This is different than a vision exam for glasses or contact lenses.  Some common reasons for a medical eye exam are:

• Yearly examination and monitoring of cataracts
• Dilated diabetic eye exam
• Glaucoma or monitoring of a glaucoma suspect
• Recent development of eye pain, redness, or discomfort in either eye
• Sudden onset of floaters or flashing lights in vision
• Headaches
• Age related macular degeneration or a family history of  the disease
