A routine annual eye exam takes care of the basics — updated prescription, ocular health check, screening for the common conditions. But for many of our patients, the work doesn’t stop there. Glimpse Vision is built around integrative eyecare: a layered set of specialty services and clinical-grade products that go beyond what a typical optical shop can offer.
What “specialty eyecare” actually means.
For us, specialty eyecare is everything that doesn’t fit neatly into a 20-minute refraction. It’s the eye that’s changing too fast in a child. It’s the chronic dry eye that hasn’t responded to drugstore drops. It’s the patient who’s tried four contact lens brands without finding comfort. It’s color-vision deficiency, migraine triggered by light, eye misalignment from screens. These are problems that need a clinical workup, real technology, and time.
What we offer.
Myopia control for kids.
Childhood myopia is now considered an epidemic. We offer FDA-authorized Stellest spectacle lenses, CooperVision MiSight 1 Day contact lenses, NaturalVue specialty multifocal contacts, low-dose atropine drops, and overnight orthokeratology — alone or in combination — to slow myopia progression by up to 71% over two years.

Dry eye evaluations and therapy.
If you’ve been using artificial tears for months and your eyes still burn, you need a real workup. Our dry eye evaluation includes tear breakup time, meibography, osmolarity testing, and lid hygiene assessment — followed by a personalized plan that may include EyePromise EZ Tears, OPTASE drops, Heyedrate hypochlorous spray, warm compress therapy, prescription drops, or our in-office Low Light Therapy device.

Specialty prescription lens technologies.
For chronic conditions, we fit Enchroma (color-vision deficiency), Avulux (migraine and light sensitivity), Neurolens (eye misalignment + digital eye strain), and a full range of premium progressive, single-vision, and occupational lens designs from Essilor, Zeiss, and Shamir.

Specialty contact lens fittings.
For irregular corneas (keratoconus, post-surgical), severe dry eye, high astigmatism, and presbyopia where standard daily contacts haven’t worked, we fit scleral, hybrid, RGP, and specialty multifocal lenses including Altius, SynergEyes Duette, ArtOptical IntelliWave, and NaturalVue Multifocal.

Our in-office photobiomodulation device is FDA-authorized for dry AMD and offers emerging protocols for dry eye and pediatric myopia. Painless, non-invasive sessions tailored to the condition.

How to start.
If you suspect something more than your routine refraction needs to happen, book a Comprehensive Eye Exam first. We’ll evaluate what’s going on, and if a specialty workup or fitting is warranted, we’ll either schedule it the same day or set up a follow-up.
Frequently asked questions.
Do you accept insurance for specialty services?
Most specialty diagnostics (dry eye workup, MPOD testing) are covered under medical insurance, not vision insurance. We’ll verify benefits before any procedure and explain costs up front.
How long do specialty fittings take?
Most specialty fittings — scleral lenses, myopia control, dry eye treatment planning — require a 45- to 60-minute first appointment plus a 2- to 4-week follow-up to verify fit and comfort.
Can I do these with a regular eye exam?
We often combine a comprehensive eye exam with the initial specialty workup, but the detailed fitting (e.g., scleral lens or myopia control plan) is usually a separate appointment.
