Comprehensive Eye Exams

Vision Correction Options
Several vision correction options are available to address refractive errors, including glasses, contact lenses, and surgical procedures, each with its own unique benefits and considerations.
Glasses, the most traditional option, offer a non-invasive and cost-effective solution for correcting nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Contact lenses, on the other hand, provide a more discreet alternative, with options for daily wear, extended wear, and even color correction.
For those seeking a more permanent solution, surgical procedures such as Laser Surgery (LASIK) and Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) can reshape the cornea to improve vision.
Corneal Reshaping, a non-surgical procedure, can also be used to correct mild to moderate refractive errors. This option involves wearing a specialized contact lens at night to reshape the cornea, providing clear vision during the day.
At Dr. Annette J. Delio Optometrist, our team will work with you to determine the most suitable vision correction option for your unique needs and lifestyle.
