Q: Why should I take an image of my retina during my eye exam?
A: A picture can say a 1000 words, and this saying holds true with the eye. There are many components of the eye, but one of the most important parts of the eye is the retina,which is located in the back of the eye behind the pupil and lens inside. The retina is responsible for converting light energy into chemical signals that are then transferred via the optic nerve to the brain, where that information is processed, resulting in our vision. There are no pain receptors within the retina, and so you will never feel any issues in the retina that may be life threatening, such as melanomas, and sight threatening, such as glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy. Changes within the retina can cause vision loss, therefore it is important for us to get imaging in the back of the eye so that we can check for any retinal disease, such as Macular Degeneration and Glaucoma, and so that we can establish a normal baseline so that we can monitor any changes more accurately. Dilations are also necessary for us to evaluate the back of the eye as well as imaging to ensure we have a complete overall sense of the eye.

Q: What are the advantages of daily disposable contact lenses?
A: There are two big benefits to daily disposable contact lenses. One is convenience. With dailies, there is no cleaning or storage, and no cost of lens cleaner. You just throw away the lenses after the day, and use a brand-new lens the next morning: nothing could be easier. The second benefit is comfort and health. Daily lenses tend to be more comfortable than monthlies, and also because they only stay in your eye for one day, there is no buildup of bacteria on the lenses that could cause infections or other problems. You also don't have to remember your replacement schedule and keep track of when to change your lenses: you have a new pair every day.

I love Dr. Akers! He is a great optometrist. We have trusted him for years. He's helped me, most recently, find a great surgeon to remove my cataracts and now I can see better than I have been able to my whole adult life! You can't go wrong with Dr. Akers.

Dr Akers is a fantastic eye doctor, and I've been to my share. He improved my prescription after a former doctor told me my prescription could no longer be improved on. Big bonus.....Dr Akers has a warm, kind, very friendly personality, and so does his staff. I had a great experience. I highly recommend Dr Akers. He'll tell you to call him Frank.

Very amazing staff and doctor. We have two small children four and two they were amazing letting them walk around and being in the rooms with us showing them all the instruments and stuff. I would highly recommend this place and they’re also open on Saturdays, which makes it very easy for a truck driver like me that works all day during the week and can’t get appointments.

Totally awesome service. Courteous customer oriented staff. I called indicating I was experiencing a problem with my eyes. They said no appointments were available. After discussion of my symptoms they were able to fit me in for a quick exam and referred me to a specialist. I can't say anything but positive comments if you need a eye specialist please check this location out before you make a decision. 't say
