Comprehensive Eye Exams
A comprehensive eye exam is about more than updating your prescription—it’s a complete evaluation of your vision and overall eye health.
Using advanced diagnostic technology, we assess how well you see, check for changes in your vision, and screen for common eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease, and retinal conditions.
We also evaluate eye coordination, focusing ability, and signs of dry eye or other medical concerns.
computer vision syndrome
If your eyes feel tired, dry, or strained after spending time on a computer, tablet, smartphone, or other digital device, you may be experiencing Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), also known as digital eye strain.
With many people spending hours each day looking at screens for work, school, and entertainment, CVS has become one of the most common vision-related concerns among children and adults.
We provide comprehensive evaluations to identify the underlying causes of digital eye strain and recommend personalized solutions to improve your comfort, vision, and productivity.
Contact Lens Exams & Fittings
Whether you're new to contact lenses or an experienced wearer, a contact lens exam and fitting at Acuity Eye Care ensures your lenses provide clear vision, a comfortable fit, and support your long-term eye health.
In addition to evaluating your vision and updating your prescription, our doctors take precise measurements of your eyes to determine the ideal contact lens size, shape, and material for your unique needs. We assess tear film quality, corneal health, and lens fit to help prevent irritation and ensure all-day comfort.
Think you can't wear contacts? Think again. Many patients have been told they aren't candidates for contact lenses, only to discover that the right lens can work for their individual needs. Dr. Gay has experience fitting most patients with contact lenses tailored to their unique vision, lifestyle, and eye health—even when standard lenses may not be the right fit. If you've been told you can't wear contacts, we'd love to take a closer look. You may have more options than you think.
Acuity Eye Care offers a variety of contact lens options.
- Disposable (daily, bi-weekly, monthly)
- Multifocal
- Toric lenses for astigmatism
- Specialty contact lenses (for conditions such as keratoconus)
Diabetic Eye Exams
A diabetic eye exam is an essential part of protecting your vision and managing your overall health if you have diabetes. Diabetes can increase your risk of serious eye conditions, including diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, glaucoma, and cataracts—often before noticeable symptoms develop.
Dr. Edwin Gay performs comprehensive diabetic eye exams using advanced diagnostic technology to evaluate the health of your retina, optic nerve, blood vessels, and other internal structures of the eye.
By detecting early signs of diabetes-related eye disease, we can recommend timely treatment, monitor changes over time, and coordinate care with your primary care physician or endocrinologist when appropriate.
Regular diabetic eye exams are one of the most effective ways to preserve your vision and support your long-term eye health.
Dry Eye Treatment
Chronic dry, irritated, or watery eyes can make everyday activities like reading, driving, or using digital devices uncomfortable.
We can provide comprehensive dry eye evaluations to identify the underlying cause of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan to restore comfort and improve your eye health.
During your evaluation, we assess your tear quality, tear production, eyelid function, and overall ocular surface to determine whether your symptoms are caused by dry eye disease, meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), allergies, or another underlying condition.
For patients seeking additional relief, our Commerce location offers innovative treatments such as Lumecca-I™ IPL and Forma-I™, which help reduce inflammation, improve meibomian gland function, and address one of the leading causes of chronic dry eye.
Urgent Eye Care
When you experience a sudden eye problem, timely care can make all the difference in protecting your vision.
Acuity Eye Care provides prompt evaluation and treatment for a wide range of urgent eye conditions, including eye injuries, foreign objects in the eye, sudden vision changes, flashes and floaters, eye infections, pink eye (conjunctivitis), corneal abrasions, chemical eye exposure, and other unexpected eye concerns.
Using advanced diagnostic technology, we quickly assess the cause of your symptoms, provide appropriate treatment, and determine if referral to an ophthalmologist or emergency facility is necessary.
Whenever possible, we offer walk-in and same-day appointments to ensure you receive the care you need without unnecessary delays.
If you're experiencing eye pain, redness, blurred vision, or an eye injury, don't wait—prompt evaluation can help prevent complications and protect your long-term vision.
Note: If you experience severe eye trauma, sudden complete vision loss, or symptoms outside our office hours, seek immediate care at the nearest emergency department or call 911.
Eyeglass Repair
Damaged eyeglasses can disrupt your daily routine, but they don't always need to be replaced.
We offer professional eyeglass repair services to help restore the comfort, fit, and function of your glasses whenever possible.
Our experienced optical team can assist with common repairs such as tightening loose screws, replacing nose pads, adjusting bent frames, realigning temples, and making minor frame adjustments for a more secure and comfortable fit.
We'll carefully evaluate your eyewear to determine the best repair solution and let you know if replacement is the better option.
Glaucoma Management
Glaucoma is often called the "silent thief of sight" because it can cause permanent vision loss without noticeable symptoms in its early stages.
At Acuity Eye Care, we provide comprehensive glaucoma screenings, ongoing monitoring, and personalized treatment plans to help detect the disease early and slow its progression.
Using advanced diagnostic technology, we evaluate your eye pressure, optic nerve health, peripheral vision, and other important indicators of glaucoma.
If glaucoma is diagnosed, we work closely with you to monitor changes over time, manage your condition with prescription medications when appropriate, and coordinate care with ophthalmology specialists if advanced treatment or surgery is needed.
With routine monitoring and early intervention, many patients can successfully preserve their vision and maintain long-term eye health.
Medical Eye Care
Your eyes can be affected by a wide range of medical conditions that require more than a routine vision exam.
Whether you're experiencing eye pain, redness, blurry vision, irritation, or changes in your eyesight, our experienced team is committed to providing timely, personalized care to help preserve your vision and support your long-term eye health.
Our medical eye care services include the diagnosis and management of dry eye disease, eye allergies, pink eye (conjunctivitis), eye infections, glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, macular degeneration, retinal disorders, corneal diseases, keratoconus, and Computer Vision Syndrome (digital eye strain).
We also provide urgent eye care for many non-life-threatening eye injuries and sudden vision concerns, as well as pre- and post-operative care for patients undergoing LASIK or cataract surgery with trusted surgical specialists.
Eye Infection Treatment
Eye infections can cause redness, irritation, pain, swelling, discharge, blurred vision, and increased sensitivity to light.
Prompt diagnosis and treatment are important to relieve symptoms, prevent the infection from spreading, and reduce the risk of complications that could affect your vision.
We diagnose and treat a variety of common eye infections, including pink eye (conjunctivitis), styes, blepharitis, and other bacterial, viral, or inflammatory eye conditions.
During your examination, we evaluate the health of your eyes, identify the underlying cause of the infection, and recommend the most appropriate treatment, which may include prescription medications, supportive care, eyelid hygiene, or follow-up monitoring.
LASIK & Cataract Surgery Co-Management
Acuity Eye Care provides comprehensive LASIK and cataract surgery co-management to support patients before and after vision correction surgery performed by trusted ophthalmology specialists.
While we do not perform surgery in-office, we play an important role in helping you prepare for your procedure, understand your options, and achieve the best possible visual outcome.
Before surgery, we perform detailed pre-operative eye evaluations to determine your candidacy for LASIK or cataract surgery and ensure your eyes are healthy and properly measured for treatment planning.
We take the time to review your vision goals, explain your options, and coordinate directly with your surgical provider.
After surgery, we provide careful post-operative follow-up care to monitor healing, evaluate visual improvement, and manage your recovery. This includes checking eye health, monitoring for complications, adjusting medications as needed, and ensuring your vision stabilizes properly over time.
Our goal is to provide seamless, coordinated care so you feel confident and supported throughout your entire surgical vision correction journey—from consultation to recovery.
Specialty Eye Rejuvenation
Available exclusively at our Commerce Township location, we offer advanced specialty eye rejuvenation services designed to improve both eye comfort and the appearance of the delicate skin around the eyes.
Our specialty services include Lumecca-I™ IPL, Forma-I™ radiofrequency treatment, and Morpheus8® microneedling with RF technology. These in-office procedures are commonly used to help reduce inflammation associated with dry eye disease, improve meibomian gland function, and enhance overall eyelid and periocular skin health.
Patients may benefit from these treatments if they experience persistent dry eye symptoms, meibomian gland dysfunction, or are interested in non-surgical aesthetic improvements around the eyes. Each treatment plan is customized based on your symptoms, skin condition, and eye health goals.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I get an eye exam?
A good rule of thumb is to schedule a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years, even if your vision seems normal. Annual eye exams are recommended for children, adults over 60, contact lens wearers, and anyone with diabetes, glaucoma, or other eye health concerns.
Do I need an eye exam if my vision seems fine?
Yes. Even if your vision seems clear, routine comprehensive eye exams are important because many eye diseases, including glaucoma and diabetic eye disease, can develop without noticeable symptoms. Regular exams help detect vision changes and protect your long-term eye health through early diagnosis and treatment.
When should i see an eye doctor for blurry vision?
You should schedule an eye exam anytime you experience persistent, worsening, or unexplained blurry vision. If your blurry vision develops suddenly or is accompanied by eye pain, flashes of light, new floaters, or vision loss, seek immediate eye care, as these symptoms may indicate a serious eye condition requiring prompt treatment.
What age should a child have their first eye exam?
Children should have their first comprehensive eye exam between 6 and 12 months of age, another exam at 3 to 5 years old, and again before starting school. Regular pediatric eye exams help detect vision problems early, supporting healthy eye development, learning, and academic success.
What should i bring to my eye exam?
Please bring your photo ID, insurance card, current eyeglasses and contact lenses (if you wear them), a list of medications, and any vision or eye health records you may have. It's also helpful to be prepared to discuss any changes in your vision, eye symptoms, or family history of eye disease so we can provide the most comprehensive care possible.
Can screen time affect my vision?
Yes. Extended screen time can contribute to digital eye strain, which may cause symptoms like dry eyes, blurry vision, headaches, and difficulty focusing. While screen use doesn’t permanently damage your eyes, taking regular breaks and getting the correct prescription can help keep your vision comfortable and clear.
Can diabetes affect my eyesight?
Yes. Diabetes can significantly affect your eyesight and increase the risk of conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, glaucoma, and cataracts. These changes often develop without early symptoms, which is why regular diabetic eye exams are essential for early detection and protecting long-term vision.
How long is my prescription valid?
Eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions expire annually. Because your vision and eye health can change over time, yearly comprehensive eye exams and contact lens fittings are required to ensure clear vision, optimal eye health, and a proper, comfortable lens fit.
