Comprehensive Eye Care in San Francisco
Medical Eye Exams, Keratoconus Care & Specialty Contact Lenses
At Mosaddegh Eye Institute, our comprehensive eye care in San Francisco is designed to evaluate your vision, screen for eye disease, and create a clear plan for long-term ocular health. We provide detailed medical eye exams, prescription and vision assessments, dry eye evaluation, and monitoring for conditions such as keratoconus, glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, cataracts, and corneal concerns.
For patients with complex vision needs, our team offers specialty vision exams and custom contact lens fittings, including options for irregular corneas and keratoconus. Every visit is guided by careful measurements, advanced diagnostic technology, and a personalized approach focused on comfort, clarity, and prevention.
Why Comprehensive Eye Exams Matter
Comprehensive eye care is more than a vision check. Many eye conditions can develop quietly before symptoms are noticeable, including glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, cataracts, dry eye disease, retinal changes, and corneal problems. A detailed exam helps identify early warning signs and gives your doctor the information needed to protect your vision.
At Mosaddegh Eye Institute, an adult medical eye exam may include review of your medical and family history, visual acuity testing, refraction, eye pressure measurement, assessment of eye teaming and focusing, pupil response, peripheral vision screening, and a careful evaluation of the front and back of the eye. Additional imaging or testing may be recommended when your symptoms, age, risk factors, or diagnosis require a closer look.
This preventive approach helps patients in San Francisco maintain clear vision, detect disease earlier, and receive the right care at the right time.
Specialty Vision Exams & Custom Lens Care
Some patients need more than a standard prescription update. Our specialty vision exams are designed for patients with keratoconus, irregular corneas, post-surgical corneas, dry eye, high prescriptions, or contact lens discomfort. These visits may include corneal measurements, tear film evaluation, lens fit analysis, and careful testing to understand why vision is blurry or unstable.
When appropriate, we may recommend specialty contact lenses, scleral lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses, hybrid lenses, or other custom lens options to improve clarity and comfort. We also coordinate care for patients who need ongoing monitoring, corneal treatment planning, or referral for advanced procedures.
Dry Eye Evaluation & Ocular Surface Care
Dry eye is one of the most common reasons patients seek comprehensive eye care. Symptoms may include burning, watering, redness, gritty sensation, fluctuating vision, contact lens discomfort, or eye fatigue. At Mosaddegh Eye Institute, we look for the underlying cause instead of only masking symptoms.
Our dry eye evaluation may assess tear quality, eyelid health, meibomian gland function, inflammation, and ocular surface stability. Depending on your findings, treatment may include in-office therapies such as LipiFlow, IPL/OptiLIGHT, BlephEx, TearCare, manual meibomian gland expression, prescription therapies, or at-home care routines. The goal is healthier eyes, better comfort, and clearer day-to-day vision.
