Periodic eye and vision examinations are an important part of preventive health care. Many eye and vision problems have no obvious signs or symptoms, so you might not know a problem exists. Through these examinations, Dr. Clark Weeks can provide an early diagnosis and treatment of eye and vision problems that can help prevent vision loss.

Pediatric Examinations

As a parent, you might wonder if your toddler has a problem with their vision. It is important that children have eye exams. Early identification of a problem is critical. If left untreated, it could cause permanent vision loss.

Management: Dr. Weeks is certified to fit myopia-control contact lenses.

Nearsightedness in our youth is considered an epidemic. Most parents assume nothing can be done to prevent or slow its progression. They end up having stronger lenses each year while watching their child become more and more dependent on their eyeglasses. Myopia control (the process of preventing or slowing near-sightedness) has become more successful over the last several years and Dr. Weeks is certified in fitting myopia-control contact lenses, as well as using pharmaceuticals to help slow myopia progression. Please ask if your child would benefit from this emerging treatment for nearsighted children and youth.

Contact Lens Fitting Examinations

When properly prescribed, contact lenses allow millions to safely and effectively correct their vision. Dr. Clark Weeks is experienced in fitting all types of contact lenses and can help you better understand how to get the full benefits of your contact lenses and reduce your chances of developing problems.
