Comprehensive Eye Exam

1. Spot Drama, Not Eye Strain

Binge-watching Love Island is basically a contact sport for your retinas. Long screen time can lead to digital eye strain, headaches, and blurry vision. A comprehensive eye exam from Eye Care of San Diego can help catch these issues early, before your next reality TV marathon gets even more tragic.

Catherine Sheils, MD, stresses the importance of regular exams:

“A lot of patients are not aware that they have glaucoma until the glaucoma is very advanced. The reason is, usually glaucoma doesn’t really start to impact the vision until it’s quite severe. That’s why we recommend at least an eye exam once a year—so we can check your pressure, your optic nerves, and catch any early signs before it’s too late.”

2. Protect Your Eyes Like a Villa Crush

San Diego sun may be perfect for poolside gossip, but not for unprotected eyes. UV rays can lead to cataracts, macular degeneration, and other long-term issues. The optical shop at Eye Care of San Diego offers a wide range of protective, stylish sunglasses to keep your corneas safe and your style rating high.

3. Get Lasik-Level Vision (No Casa Amor Required)

Glasses fogging up during dramatic plot twists? Not ideal. Consider LASIK or refractive lens exchange. Eye Care of San Diego offers state-of-the-art options and a free LASIK self-test online. Because seeing clearly shouldn’t require you to pause your show every five minutes.

4. Treat Your Eyes to a Spa Day (Dry Eye Edition)

Eyes feeling gritty, dry, or irritated? You’re not crying over a breakup—probably. Dry eye syndrome affects millions, especially those exposed to screens, fans, or San Diego’s desert breeze.

John Bokosky, MD, Corneal Specialist at Eye Care of San Diego, explains:

“First, we look at environmental factors like fans and other triggers. We start with the simplest, least expensive treatments and escalate if needed. We have a series of 10 different treatments, from modern medications to LipiFlow, to address more complex causes of dryness, like autoimmune conditions. The goal is to keep patients comfortable with the least invasive path possible.”

5. Fall in Love with Personalized Care

No one likes generic romance, and your eyes don’t like generic treatment either. Eye Care of San Diego offers subspecialty care for cataracts, glaucoma, cornea issues, and more—tailored to your eyes, not just your insurance plan.

Dr. Sheils adds:

“Glaucoma’s also easier to treat when it’s caught earlier rather than in its later stages when the treatment options become more invasive. The sooner we can identify the condition, the more options we have to protect your vision.”

Here’s what our patients are saying about Eye Care of San Diego:

“I had the privilege of being seen by Dr. Sara Julazadeh during an urgent medical situation, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She was thorough, patient, and exceptionally communicative throughout the entire process. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my well-being… Her compassion and dedication made me feel truly seen and supported. I left the appointment feeling complete and confident that I was in the best hands.”

“Dr. Catherine Sheils took a lot of time with me explaining everything she was doing. Very kind and personable—at the beginning of the visit I was extremely anxious and nervous but she quickly put me at ease and I felt great confidence in her.”
