- Emergency CareAt Foresight Vision, we’re proud to offer emergency eye care to all our patients, young or old, in and surrounding communities. Our eye doctor, Dr. Todd Cohen, often takes care of these emergency eye appointments himself.

- GlaucomaGlaucoma is another serious complication caused by high myopia. Glaucoma happens when the pressure inside the eye is too high, which damages the optic nerve and leads to vision loss. High myopia increases the risk of glaucoma because the elongated eye shape makes it more difficult for the eye to drain fluid, which increases eye pressure.

- Macular DegenerationMacular Pigment Optical Density (MPOD) is a measurement of of macular pigment. This pigment acts like “internal sunglasses†to protect eyes from harmful blue light. When you have a low level of pigment cells in your macula, it may result in higher risk for disease. By providing nutrients to help build up the pigment cells in the macula of your eyes, you reduce the risk of developing macular degeneration. Since macular degeneration is a primary cause of blindness, we strive to catch the condition early by using proper testing and ensuring that you protect your eyes with the right treatments.

- CataractsHigh myopia can also contribute to the formation of cataracts, which cause the eye’s natural lens to grow progressively more cloudy.
- Cataract SurgeryCataract surgery not only improves vision. Research suggests that cataract surgery may also prevent cognitive decline.

- Multiple SclerosisComputer assisted visual field testing is a type of exam that evaluates your ability to see in all directions when your eyes are focused on a single point. At our office of optometry, our testing equipment evaluates the sensitivity of your peripheral vision and your ability to see clearly out of the corners of your eyes. Essentially, we use a visual field computer to map your responses to stimuli in the retina. Information from this test can help with diagnosis of glaucoma, macular degeneration, optic glioma, brain tumor, multiple sclerosis, stroke, central nervous system disorders among other diseases and conditions.
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)Studies show that many children with learning disabilities also have visual issues that can make it even more difficult to learn. And sometimes, visual problems are misdiagnosed as ADHD or a learning disability because they share some of the same symptoms.
