Eye Doctor in Winter Garden FL
It is important that you are aware of certain signs that indicate you should contact our vision practice immediately to see our eye doctor. At Clermont Family Eyecare, our
eye doctor in Winter Garden FL, Dr. Samantha Love, can see you on an emergency basis to make sure that your eyes are healthy and do not need immediate treatment.
Whenever you experience any type of vision change, it is important that you quickly visit our eye doctor in Winter Garden Fl. This is because serious problems in the eye can develop very quickly, so it is important that any type of eye problem is quickly. If your vision becomes suddenly blurred, it may be that you are experiencing problems from some type of eye disease such as glaucoma, or if you have diabetes, diabetic retinopathy. Our eye doctor will be able to examine your retina using a dilated eye exam. Sometimes blurred vision can be due to the fact that you need an updated lens prescription, or because you are developing cataracts. However, it is always important to make sure you do not need any type of immediate care. If your eyes are becoming increasingly red, and are itchy, you should also come in to see our eye doctor on an emergency basis. You may have an eye infection, such as keratitis. This will need immediate treatment, most likely calling for the use of medicated eye drops. If you have a sudden increase in the number of floaters in your eyes, and you are experiencing flashes of light, you may have a retinal tear. This should be immediately diagnosed to make sure it does not need any type of treatment in order to keep the retina from detaching. Constant unexplained headaches can also be a sign of vision problem, as well as eyestrain. Of course, if there is any type of sudden vision loss you will want to come in to see us immediately.
