Why are regular eye exams so important?

Because your eyes are constantly changing, even if you don’t notice it, routine eye exams help detect issues like glaucoma, cataracts, and even early signs of diabetes. The earlier we spot something, the easier it is to manage. Think of it as preventative care that could save your sight.

How much does an eye exam cost?

It depends on your needs and whether you’re paying out of pocket or using insurance. At Excel Eye Center, we work with most major insurance providers and offer transparent pricing. Give us a call, and we’ll walk you through your options with no surprises.

What is the difference between an eye exam and a contact lens evaluation?

An eye exam checks your vision and eye health. A contact lens evaluation goes a step further it includes extra measurements and fitting to find the perfect lenses for your eyes. It’s like tailoring a suit: close enough isn’t good enough when it comes to your comfort and vision.

I think I may have an eye infection. What should I do?

Don’t wait it out. Redness, irritation, discharge—those are all signs that something isn’t right. Call us as soon as possible. We’ll get you in quickly, diagnose the issue, and get you on a treatment plan fast.
