Comprehensive Eye Exams
A comprehensive eye exam includes an updated vision prescription, but it’s also an important opportunity to screen your eyes for any risk factors that may indicate a developing eye disease.
Pediatrics
Vision plays a major part in how children learn, socialize, and develop. That’s why pediatric eye exams screen for age-specific eye conditions and pair kids with glasses they’ll feel great wearing.

Dry eye can be uncomfortable or painful, but personalized treatment can help. The eye doctors at Whelpley & Paul can diagnose your specific dry eye causes to start helping right away.
