Geographic atrophy is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) where small areas of the retina break down over time, leading to gradual central vision loss.

Geographic atrophy can affect quality of everyday life, and early detection is the key. Regular eye exams help us monitor changes in the retina, provide education, and discuss new treatment options designed to slow progression.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with AMD or is noticing changes in central vision, we’re here to help guide you through every step. Healthy vision starts with awareness, and we’re committed to protecting yours.

As we get close to the end of the year, now is the perfect time to use any remaining vision insurance or FSA dollars before they expire. Many plans reset on January 1st, and unused benefits usually don’t roll over.

Whether you’ve been meaning to update your glasses, stock up on contacts, or schedule that eye exam you’ve been putting off, we’re here to help you make the most of your coverage.

Give us a call and we’ll help you check your benefits and get scheduled before the year wraps up. Let’s make sure you step into the new year with clear, comfortable vision!

We had such a fantastic team meeting this morning! We kicked things off by introducing a new program for our employees that we’re excited to roll out in the new year. We also took time to share team kudos, celebrating the big and small moments where our staff continues to support one another and go above and beyond. And of course, we ended on a festive note with our annual Secret Santa gift exchange, which brought plenty of laughs and holiday cheer. We’re grateful for this team and moments like these that bring us all together.

Oh and special guest ft. The Points Wizard🤪

We’re excited to share that our doctors and team will be presenting at DMU this January, highlighting our expertise in brain injury rehabilitation and how it impacts the visual system.

Sara will discuss in her own session how to recognize vision issues affecting balance, distinguish visual vs. vestibular dizziness, and use integrated rehab techniques like gaze stabilization and eye-body coordination to support recovery.

Collaboration with other professionals is something we truly value. By building strong relationships and sharing knowledge, we’re able to create better outcomes for the patients who trust us with their care.

We can’t wait to connect, learn, and continue growing together!

SESSION HIGHLIGHT - FUNCTIONAL VISION SKILLS FOR PT PROVIDERS: RECOGNIZING AND REHABILITATING VISUAL BREAKDOWNS

Sara Mohr, COVT, from Elite Eye Care and Elite Vision Therapy, will discuss how to identify vision deficits affecting balance and coordination after concussion or neurological injury, differentiate visual and vestibular causes of dizziness, and apply integrative rehab techniques like gaze stabilization and eye–body coordination.

Readers are Leaders 💫
Our leadership team spent the morning diving into Becoming the Vision by Dr. Angela Peddle — a book that has truly reshaped how we think, lead, and care for our patients.

Dr. Peddle, a Canadian optometrist, visionary in our field, and dear friend/mentor to Dr. Bell, put into words what makes vision care at Elite Eye Care feel so different. Her Neuro-Integrative Model of Vision beautifully explains how vision is a whole-body experience — and why every single member of our team plays a crucial role in every patient’s success.

Sharing this book together reminded us how much we grow when we learn side by side. 💫💚📚

Diabetes can affect so much more than blood sugar, it can also impact the health of your eyes. That’s why yearly diabetic eye exams are essential. These visits allow us to closely monitor the retina, detect early signs of diabetic eye disease, and protect your vision before changes become noticeable.

Even if your vision seems perfectly fine, damage can happen silently. Regular exams give us the best chance to catch concerns early, provide timely treatment, and help preserve your sight for years to come.

If you or someone you know has diabetes, staying consistent with eye care is one of the most important steps you can take for supporting lifelong vision.
