Struggling to See Far Away Objects? Consider Eyeglasses

1/28/2023

Nearsightedness (myopia) and other refractive disorders disrupt patients' eyesight, making it more difficult or impossible to see things at various distances. Dr. Scott Campbell has helped many past patients enjoy sharper vision and would love to help you as well. We also know our Seattle-area patients have busy lives with diverse obligations, so we strive to make everything as efficient as possible. Therefore, our cutting-edge optical lab can craft your sight-clearing prescription while you're in our office, so you won't have to wait for your eyeglasses or make any additional trips.

And with a full spectrum of lens types and designs, we can find something that's just right for your optical needs and stylistic preferences. To see the world more clearly tomorrow, contact us today at SPEX.

What causes refractive disorders like nearsightedness?

We'll perform a comprehensive eye exam to determine the cause of your visual woes and formulate the most effective prescription possible for your needs. One common cause for complaint is difficulty seeing faraway objects. This loss of faraway focus is also known as nearsightedness, or myopia, which means that individuals can only clearly see things that are up close.

Nearsightedness is one of the all-too-common refractive disorders affecting more than 100 million Americans. The underlying cause is an abnormally shaped eyeball that improperly bends incoming light. And if light can't be focused onto the retina, then clear and continuous vision is not possible at distant ranges.

If you're struggling to see faraway objects, consider eyeglasses

Yet, even though this condition can hamper one's lifestyle, multiple effective treatment options exist, including eyeglasses, which can correct your vision and give you life-improving acuity at all ranges. So, you can excel at everything you have to (and love to) do on a daily basis. Plus, our Seattle practice features the most advanced vision technology, including a state-of-the-art optic lab. So, you won't have to wait or be inconvenienced – you'll be able to enjoy the sight-boosting results of your new prescription during your initial visit.

We're also happy to offer you a wide range of prescription sunglasses. Sunglasses may not seem necessary in the greater Seattle area, especially during certain times of the year, but it's vital that patients protect their eyes from UV radiation. Even on cloudy days, a proper pair of glasses can guard your eyes. And since cumulative exposure can damage the ocular tissues or speed up the development of certain conditions like cataracts, this is an easy way to improve your eye health and help prevent future issues. And we'll work to find something that suits your needs, whether it's multi-functional transition lenses or rough and rugged sunglasses for those who enjoy outdoor or sporting activities.

We also have a comprehensive selection of top designers, including Alain Mikli and L.A. Eyeworks, with various shapes, styles, sizes, and colors. And if such a selection seems overwhelming, don't worry; our expert optical team will help you choose an optimal option based on your design preferences and unique ocular needs.
