Comprehensive Eye Health Exams
A comprehensive eye health exam at Bard Optical is so much more than just a standard visual acuity screening. During your exam, we’ll get an in-depth look at the critical structures that control your sight using advanced technology. With our cutting-edge eye care tools, we can comfortably image your inner eye and check for diseases, while also ensuring your prescription is up to date!
Pediatric Eye Health Exams
In our pediatric eye health exams, our expert eye doctors check for conditions common in younger eyes, like myopia (nearsightedness), strabismus (crossed eyes), and amblyopia (lazy eye). If we detect any issues with your child’s sight, we’ll start them on a treatment plan and set them up with kid-friendly eyewear!
Contact Lens Exams
To make sure your contact lenses suit your needs and keep your eyes healthy, they need to fit perfectly and be dialed in to your specific prescription. Our eye doctors do so during our specialized contact lens exams. We use advanced equipment to measure your eyes, screen for front-of-eye conditions, and help you select the perfect pair of contacts for your eyes.
Eye Disease Management
Through our medical model of care, we’re here to protect and preserve your vision for life. Our eye doctors use their extensive training and the latest diagnostic technology in every comprehensive eye health exam. If we spot any signs of sight-threatening disease, we’ll create a personal management plan to keep your vision in the clear for the many years to come.
Eyewear Options for Everyone
At our Forsyth location, you’ll find an extensive collection of popular eyewear brands to browse. We offer frames in all kinds of styles, as well as customizable lenses for every prescription need. And for those who want the lifestyle flexibility of contact lenses, we have standard daily and specialty lenses!
