Routine Eye Care

Helping people see better and catching problems before they progress, through yearly preventative eye exams, is the most rewarding thing that we do. During a yearly well vision examination, patients receive a comprehensive history review, a series of vision and eye tests, wide angle photographs of the back of the eyes, assessments of eye focusing and movement, and an eye health evaluation. Our doctors discuss all findings with each patient, make recommendations for solving any vision problems, and discuss any eye health concerns.
Call us today at 912-826-3949 to schedule an appointment.

Contact Lenses

Not sure if you want to wear glasses all the time? Ask us about contact lenses. Advances in contact lens technology have produced a variety of different types of contact lenses with a range of benefits. Our doctors will discuss the various options with you to determine which type will best fit your needs and lifestyle. There are many advantages to consider when determining if contact lenses are right for you and our knowledgeable staff is here to answer any questions.

Lasik

Laser assisted in situ keratomileusis, commonly referred to as LASIK, is a corrective alternative to glasses or contact lenses. Like glasses or contact lenses, LASIK is a method for treating refractive conditions including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. At Effingham Eye Care, our doctors provide pre- and post-operative exams for LASIK and other eye procedures. Call 912-826-3949 today to schedule an examination to see whether you are a candidate for LASIK.

We look forward to hearing from you.
