What Exactly Is Presbyopia?

If you notice a loss of near vision, then you are probably experiencing presbyopia. Multifocal contact lenses may be exactly what you are looking for! You will be able to enjoy the advantages of contacts, and ditch your reading glasses when reading or writing.

Eye Focus on Vision

We offer comprehensive medical eye exams performed with the most up-to-date equipment. Our practice has over 75 combined years of experience and continues to provide the best quality, care, and customer service to every one of our patients.

How is Glaucoma Treated?

Early diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma can often mean the difference between vision and blindness. If you are diagnosed with glaucoma the goal is to prevent loss of vision. At Eyes On 40, our eye doctors offer numerous treatment options for glaucoma.

Today I went back for my annual eye exam to my favorite place Professional Vision in Elicott city Maryland and I was seeing by my doctor for 39 plus years Dr Anne Marie Gallagher! The place was spotless clean, Covid-19 protected, privacy and care were number one priority and the service second to none! It’s no wonder doctor Gallagher is now the number 1 doctor in Howard county and the CEO of her practice! The staff were fantastic and caring, and I felt a warm and friendly family like environment over there! The office is moving to a nearby newly location in Normandy shopping center and I can’t wait to visit them in January of 2022! Keep up the good work Dr Gallagher and many Kudos to you for running an A+ facility with well trained and happy faces staff! Although the masks are on for all of us but you can see their laughs and smiles and happy faces under their masks through their eyes!!👍🙂 you have trained them well especially now with the pandemic passing through our lives!

Multifocal Contacts: We Have The Solution

If you are noticing a loss of near vision? Maybe you want to enjoy the advantages of contacts, as well as ditch your reading glasses when reading or writing? Multifocal contact lenses may be exactly what you are looking for and your Professional Vision eye doctor can help!

4 Ways to Save Your Vision Over Age 40

1) Multi-focal Contact Lenses - Get the distance to see clearly up close & far away each day with Multifocal contact lenses, both in the regular & 1-day varieties.

2) Multi-focal Eyeglass Lenses - Eyeglass lenses with more than one power to help those of us over age 40 deal with the normal, age-related loss of near vision called presbyopia.

3) Progressive Lenses - These lenses have a gradual change in power from the top to the bottom of the lens, providing a range of powers for clear vision far away, up close and everywhere in between.

4) Reading Glasses - It's worth it to go with custom-made reading glasses (versus the drugstore variety) - you will experience extra comfort and precise vision.
