EYECARE SERVICES IN HOOVER, AL

Eye Exams

​

We provide computer assisted comprehensive eye exams for children and adults. Our examination includes a thorough ocular and medical history, evaluation of eye muscles, color vision, updated prescription information, medical evaluation for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration and more. We have computerized instrument technology that enables our doctors to evaluate digital retina images, corneal imaging, and optic nerve imaging.

​

Our care for patients with diabetes, hypertension, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and other medical conditions are extensive. We communicate with patient’s primary care physician and other specialists for ocular involvement and other medical recommendations.

​

Pediatric Vision

​

We recommend that children have their first eye exam by age 3. If parent’s notice signs of an eye turn, excessive tearing, or squinting we recommend an immediate evaluation. Also, some children may have 20/20 vision, yet still suffer from focusing and eye muscle coordination disorders. These conditions can affect learning and reading, as 80% of information gathered is by vision. At Inverness Eye Care, we custom design testing and therapy programs for children with visual tracking problems and eye muscle disorders. We will coordinate with your child's teachers, tutors and reading specialists.

​

Eye Diseases

​

One of the most common ocular complaints are burning, itching, and red eyes. Some conditions are acute and are resolved quickly; others are chronic and can be related to other medical conditions such as thyroid disorder, lupus, and medication side effects. With our advanced technology and standard of care, we can assess and treat such conditions. Treatment options include punctal plugs, Restasis, and other ocular medications. We treat acute infections and injuries. We also treat acute eye infections and injuries. After hours, a doctor is on call for emergencies. Call the regular office number for the doctor on call.
