Comprehensive Eye Care
Comprehensive Eye Care involves a complete and detailed examination and treatment of your visual ability and refraction, your binocular vision, your eye health and will include:
- A thorough review of your health and vision history
- Visual acuity examination
- Binocular vision examination
- Refraction (test for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia)
- Measurement of eye pressure, IOPs -intraocular pressures which are used to evaluate and treat patients at risk or with glaucoma
- An Ocular health examination which includes retinal imaging, OCT -optical coherence tomography of central retina and / or optic nerve
- Complete spectacle and /or contact lens therapy that's right for you, your work and active lifestyle
Early intervention and treatment gives a person the best possible chance of maintaining good vision. A comprehensive eye examination not only reveals the health of your eyes, but can also be an indicator of your overall health.
We will work together, it's Dr. Clarke’s privilege to give you the best possible care
Sports Vision
Vision leads our movements, our body.
Vision allows us to start, to anticipate, and react to our environment on the ice, the court, and on the field of play.
A Sports Vision Profile assesses an athlete's vision, eye-hand and eye-body co ordination, reaction - response times, central and peripheral recognition and balance.
Results help identify deficiencies in an athlete's visual abilities and a vision training program that is sports specific can develop and enhance their training (fitness, nutrition, instruction)to improve their overall performance.
Give the athlete an edge over their competition!
Traumatic Brain Injury
A Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), a concussion, is the result of direct injury to the head, or from whiplash.
This can lead to visual and / or binocular vision dysfunction(s).
A person suffering a TBI will describe symptoms such as : headaches, double vision, objects appearing to move, poor concentration and short attention span, light sensitivity, visual fatigue, their balance and/or co ordination is off, prone to "staring", a physical change in posture, and their current prescription doesn't work. Any, or all of these symptoms indicate Post Traumatic Vision Syndrome (PTVS).
After emergency medical needs are meet, a person with PTVS needs a neuro-optometric examination to establish a thorough case history and assess their ocular health, vision, sensory-motor function, refraction, brain-motor function, and visual field of vision.
Dr. Clarke works with other health care providers: neurologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and chiropractors. Together, working in the best interest of the person whom has sustained Post Traumatic Vision Syndrome after suffering a TBI, Dr. Clarke will develop a rehabilitation program to help influence and maximize potential for each individual.
