Vision is one of our most precious senses. Yet, it's vulnerable to various diseases that can significantly impact our quality of life. At McPeak Optometry, we're committed to detecting and managing ocular diseases at their earliest stages.

Eye Diseases We Treat at McPeak Optometry
Proactive Glaucoma Management
Glaucoma, often known as the "silent thief of sight," can progress unnoticed until it affects vision. Our proactive screening and treatment strategies aim to preserve vision through early detection, medication, and laser therapy when necessary.
Macular Degeneration Treatment
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss among older adults. We offer comprehensive management options, including lifestyle advice and advanced treatments, to slow progression and protect your central vision.
Diabetic Retinopathy Solutions
Diabetic retinopathy is a serious condition that affects the eyes of people with diabetes. It occurs when high blood sugar levels cause damage to the blood vessels in the retina, the part of the eye that captures light and sends visual signals to the brain. As the condition progresses, these blood vessels can swell, leak, or close, preventing blood from passing through. In advanced stages, abnormal new blood vessels may grow on the retina, potentially leading to significant vision loss or blindness.
For individuals with diabetes, regular eye exams are not just about vision correction; they are a critical component of overall diabetes management. Early detection of diabetic retinopathy through comprehensive eye exams at McPeak Optometry can lead to treatments that significantly slow the progression of the disease, preserving vision and quality of life.
We encourage anyone with diabetes to schedule regular eye exams and to reach out to us with any concerns about their vision or eye health. Together, we can work towards protecting your vision against the impacts of diabetes.
Cataract Co-Management
Whether you're undergoing LASIK, cataract surgery, or refractive lens exchange, our pre- and post-operative care services ensure you're fully supported before, during, and after your procedure for optimal recovery and vision outcomes.
Dry Eye Relief for Uncomfortable Eyes
Dry eye syndrome is a common condition that occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or the right quality of tears to keep them adequately lubricated. Our practice offers advanced diagnostic and treatment options to relieve the discomfort of dry eyes, including artificial tears, prescription eye drops, and lifestyle modifications to enhance your eye comfort and health.
Soothing Allergic Conjunctivitis
Allergic conjunctivitis can make the eyes itchy, red, and watery, significantly affecting your comfort and quality of life, especially during allergy season. We provide effective treatments and preventive strategies to manage the symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis, helping you achieve relief and maintain clear, comfortable vision.
