Vision Care Associates

General Practitioners

Pediatric Care
Vision Care Associates has been providing excellent vision care to patients since 1960. Our experienced doctors offer comprehensive vision examinations and also specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, injuries and infections. Our doctors are also skilled in pediatrics and the diagnosis and treatment of learning related vision problems.
Primary Care
Upon graduating in 2011 she moved to the Pacific Northwest. She completed a residency at Group Health Cooperative in primary care, contact lens and ocular disease. Although she hadn’t planned on staying in Washington, she fell in love with the area. She has worked in large Ophthalmology practices gaining further experience in ocular disease and pre and post-operative care.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Often called “the silent thief of sight,” glaucoma is an increase in the intraocular pressure of the eyes, which causes damage to the optic nerve with no signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to a decrease in peripheral vision and eventually blindness.
Ophthalmology
Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the slow loss of central vision due to the deterioration of the macula, the part of the retina with the highest concentration of photoreceptor cells and the part that gives us our detailed central vision. Beyond a certain point, AMD can make it difficult or impossible to perform close-up tasks like reading or writing. It would also be incredibly unsafe to drive.
Laser Eye Surgery
In reality, most people have some degree of astigmatism, which is usually present at birth and is believed to be hereditary. In minor cases, treatment may not be required but is certainly beneficial. Moderate to severe astigmatism can be treated with corrective eyewear or LASIK surgery.
Cataracts
A cataract is a clouding of the eye’s normally clear lens, which leads to a progressive blurring or dimming of vision. It is the world’s leading cause of blindness and among the most common conditions related to aging – by age 65, you have a 50 percent chance of developing a cataract, and, by age 75, it jumps to 70 percent.
Cataract Surgery
Eye Exam
Your eye care provider can recommend the best contact lenses for you based on a complete eye examination and a review of your visual needs both at work and play. Since most people can wear more than one type of lens, it’s important to know what the choices are and the advantages and disadvantages to each.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Wet AMD has something in common with diabetic retinopathy: the body attempts to repair the retina by growing new blood vessels to strengthen the blood supply, but these new blood vessels are unstable and prone to leaking. They leave the macula scarred and contribute to vision loss. This form of AMD progresses faster than dry AMD.

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
We work closely with occupational therapists as we find children with gross motor; fine motor and sensory processing delays most often have vision related delays that can be treated successfully with vision therapy. Vision therapy in some ways is similar to physical therapy. Vision therapy is the strengthening of ocular motor control and alignment, which creates neurological synapses to create and maintain better visual performance and coordination. This correlates with improved fine motor eye movements, depth perception and reading speed and comprehension.
