eye exam richmond va and machine for eye exam in richmond

From eye exams and contact lens fittings, to laser vision correction and corneal mapping, the optometrists at Patterson Eye Clinic provide comprehensive eye care to patients of all ages. We also diagnose and offer referrals, if appropriate, for conditions such as glaucoma, diabetic complications, and macular degeneration. We can often treat dry eye symptoms in our office.

Patterson Eye Clinic has been caring patients from Richmond, Tuckahoe & Lakeside, VA for over 30 Years. Come in and take a look at our designer frames and prescription glasses selection anytime.

Our Eye Care Services Include:

  • Comprehensive Eye Exams
    Learn more about what problems can be spotted with an eye exam, what’s involved in a comprehensive exam, and special considerations for kids and contacts.
  • Eye Allergies
    Are you bothered by red, itchy eyes? You may have allergies.
  • Pediatric Eye Exams
    Early identification of a child's vision problem is crucial.
  • Management of Ocular Diseases
    Including Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration, and Cataracts.
  • Digital Retinal Imaging / Advanced Eye Care Technology
    A quick and easy photographic test which yields a high resolution image of the blood vessels and the inner lining of the eye.  Important for patients with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, macular degeneration or glaucoma.  Allows for a detailed view of the retina, often without the need for dilation, and becomes a permanent part of your eye health record.
  • Emergencies, Pink/Red Eyes & Foreign Body Removal
    Did you know your optometrist can help you with red eyes, pink eye, or sore eyes, foreign body removal and eye emergencies?
  • LASIK Surgery Co-Management
    If you're ready for an alternative to glasses and/or contacts, LASIK may be the right solution for you!
  • Refractive Surgery Co-Management
    Look to us for co-management of LASIK, cataract, and other ocular surgery.
  • Your Diabetic Eye Exam
    Unlike a routine eye exam that assesses your visual system and eye health, anyone who was diagnosed with type 1 or type 2 diabetes requires an additional test for their eye exam.
  • Dry Eye Treatment
    Dry eyes result from the chronic lack of lubrication and moisture on the surface of the eye, which can cause minor irritations, an inability to wear contact lenses and an increased risk of corneal inflammation and eye infections.
  • Corneal Mapping
    A non-invasive medical imaging technique for mapping the surface curvature of the cornea, the outer structure of the eye. 
  • Visual Field Testing
    Measures the quality of your side vision (peripheral vision). Usually involves covering one eye and focusing the other on a fixed point in front of you, while describing what you can see on the “periphery” of your vision. 

In an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, the CDC has recommended that all routine eye care be deferred until further notice.

For the safety of our patients, our team, and the community, P.E.C. is complying with that recommendation. We are currently rescheduling annual eye examinations for patients without problems.

Our doctors are continuing to see patients with urgent and emergent eye problems.

Temporarily, our office is open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday - Friday.

Please call 804-285-7638 before coming to the office so that we can address your questions and concerns on an individual basis.

If you are picking up contact lenses or eyewear, we would be happy to bring them to your car. We can also mail your contact lens supply without shipping charges.

After business hours, if you have an eye emergency, please call 804-205-7628 to speak to one of our doctors.

Stay safe. We very much look forward to seeing you in the future.
