In our digital world, it’s almost impossible to avoid screens.

Not every vision problem can be solved with a standard pair of glasses or off-the-shelf contact lenses. At Primary Eye Care, we specialize in finding solutions for patients with unique or complex eye conditions. Specialty lenses offer a powerful, customized option for individuals who need more advanced care to achieve clear, comfortable vision.

If you suffer from dry, irritated eyes, you may be experiencing symptoms of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, or MGD. This common condition occurs when the meibomian glands in your eyelids become blocked or do not produce enough oil, leading to an unstable tear film and the uncomfortable symptoms of dry eye. For many patients, traditional treatments like artificial tears or warm compresses are not enough to bring lasting relief. That is where LipiFlow may come in.

Choosing the right eyewear is about more than just seeing clearly. It’s about comfort, functionality, style, and protection. At Primary Eye Care, we believe your glasses should be as unique as you are. Whether you’re updating your look, addressing specific vision needs, or trying glasses for the first time, here are the most important considerations to keep in mind when selecting the perfect eyewear.

For many people, LASIK surgery offers the chance to see clearly without the hassle of glasses or contact lenses. At Primary Eye Care, we specialize in LASIK co-management, helping you navigate the process from initial evaluation to post-surgery care.

Dry eye syndrome is a common condition that occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, and even long-term vision issues if left untreated. Fortunately, adopting good eye care habits can help prevent dry eye and maintain overall eye health.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of vision loss among individuals with diabetes. This progressive eye condition occurs when high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels in the retina, leading to vision impairment and, in severe cases, blindness. Advancements in technology are transforming the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy, helping patients preserve their vision and manage the condition more effectively.

Dry, irritated eyes can be more than just a nuisance—they can significantly impact your quality of life. For many, this discomfort stems from a condition known as Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), one of the leading causes of dry eye syndrome. If you’ve struggled with persistent dryness, burning, or blurry vision, Primary Eye Care has a solution that could transform your eye health: LipiFlow® Thermal Pulsation Therapy.

When it comes to contact lenses, most people think of standard soft lenses as a one-size-fits-all solution. However, for some individuals, achieving clear, comfortable vision with traditional lenses can be challenging. This is where hard-to-fit contact lenses come in—customized solutions designed to address unique eye conditions and needs.

Technological advancements have paved the way for innovative surgical procedures that aim to enhance vision and improve quality of life.
