  • "We barely go to optometrists so when we do, we should look for the best! I am super pleased I chose Dr. Pal\'s office. They were helpful from beginning to end, from booking on the phone to my actual visit. Dr. Pal was very detailed and went in-depth about my eye health. She is very patient and made me feel calm. The optician helped me pick a great pair of glasses, they were genuinely friendly which is a huge bonus."

  • "I have been going to Dr. Pal for several years now. My most recent visit on June 6, 2016 was the best experience there that I have ever had. Firstly, the women on the desk were friendly and efficient - a very good prelude to my examination. Dr. Pal, herself, was, as usual, very thorough and encouraging in her examination. And she puts you at ease before we get into the eyes examination by discussing other things in life. That helps to ease any stress I may have. And they now have a man in the office who does that difficult examination (name of which I do not know!). He is so patient and encouraging and made the exam not so difficult for me this time. After all that, I saw Dr. Pal again before I left and she told me my eyes were good! Even had the news been not so good, I believe that I would be able to handle it because I truly believe that Dr. Pal and her staff would have taken good care of me. I will always go back to Dr. Pal and members of her team because I truly believe"

  • " I have been to a few appointments at Dr. Pal\'s office over the last year for dry eye issues and every time it has been a very positive experience. The 3 receptionists at the front desk are warm and friendly. They are attentive and provide a very high level of customer service. I appreciate that they call me by name and remembered conversations we had at previous visits. I find Dr. Pal to be an excellent practitioner who is very thorough with her exams, has a lovely personality and takes the time to answer any and all questions that may arise. I am happy with the computer glasses I purchased and value the honest opinions I received from the staff when selecting frames. It was refreshing to have multiple opinions on styles and I felt they truly wanted me to walk out with a frame that was best suited to me. I highly recommend Dr. Pal \'s office! As a health care practitioner myself, I think all health care experiences should be this personilzed and friendly!"

Macular Degeneration: The Sneak Thief of Vision
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is considered to be the leading cause of functional vision loss in people over the age of 55 in the western world.

Mature Vision: Presbyopia
By early adulthood, the human eye is fully developed; at its maximum potential it includes various components that are not easily measured by traditional eye charts, such as depth perception, night vision and hand-eye coordination. However, vision does still change over time. By about the age of 40, the symptoms of "presbyopia" begin to become noticeable, most commonly by difficulties reading fine print or using a computer for extended time periods.

Meibomitis
Other causes of meibomitis include acne rosacea and blepharitis. Overview Along the margin of the lids there are a series of small sebaceous glands called the meibomian glands.

Myokymia (Eyelid Twitching)
As eyecare practitioners, we frequently hear from patients that they are bothered by twitching in the eyelid of one eye. The eyelid muscles around one eye (only rarely in both) will begin to quiver involuntarily; episodes can be as frequent as several times a day or perhaps once a week. To the person experiencing it, the entire lid feels like it might be moving, but in reality it is a very small movement, almost unnoticeable by others. While it can be annoying, the twitching is not ser...

Myopia
Technically known as myopia (my-O-pe-ah) nearsightedness is a vision problem that affects over 25 per cent of adults worldwide and it is the most common vision problem in the United States. Nearsighted people experience difficulty seeing objects at a distance but can see objects at close range. Myopia occurs because the eyeball is too long as measured from front to back. Thus light focuses in front of the retina instead of directly on it causing blurred distant objects. Nearsightedness can...

Myopia: What Causes It?
Myopia is a refractive error also known as nearsightedness or shortsightedness. (Refractive errors are named for where the uncorrected vision is better; in this case, nearsightedness gives good vision up close, but blurriness for things in the distance.) In an eye that is myopic, light rays entering the eye are brought to a focus in front of the retina instead of exactly on it, so images are blurry instead of being sharp and clear. When the myopic person gazes at something ...
