Frequently Asked Questions About Our Eye Care Services
How often should I schedule a comprehensive eye exam?
Most adults with no known eye conditions should have a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, or have risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of glaucoma or macular degeneration, annual exams are strongly recommended. Children should follow the pediatric eye exam schedule recommended by the American Optometric Association. At Saratoga Vision, we will help you determine the right exam frequency based on your individual needs.
Do you accept vision insurance for eye care services?
Yes, we accept most major vision and medical insurance plans at our Saratoga Springs practice. We encourage patients to contact us at (518) 587-5900 before their appointment to verify coverage and understand any out-of-pocket costs. Our team is happy to assist with insurance questions and help you maximize your benefits for exams, contact lenses, and eyewear.
What is the difference between a vision screening and a comprehensive eye exam?
A vision screening is a brief test — often done at a pediatrician’s office or school — that can identify potential vision problems but is not a substitute for a full eye exam. A comprehensive eye exam conducted by an optometrist like those at Saratoga Vision evaluates not only your visual acuity but also the health of your eye structures, including the retina, optic nerve, and intraocular pressure. Many serious eye diseases can only be detected through a thorough examination.
Can I be seen for an eye emergency on the same day?
We do our best to accommodate urgent and emergency eye care needs on the same day. If you are experiencing sudden vision changes, eye pain, a foreign object in your eye, or signs of an eye infection, please call us immediately at (518) 587-5900. Our team will advise you on the next steps and get you in as quickly as possible. Learn more about our emergency eye care services.
Do you offer services for children and infants?
Absolutely. Saratoga Vision is a family-friendly optometry practice that provides eye care for patients of all ages, including infants as young as 6 months. As a member of the InfantSEE® program, we offer free visual screenings for babies between 6 and 12 months of age. Early detection of vision problems is critical for healthy development, learning, and coordination. Visit our pediatric eye care page to learn more.
What treatments are available for dry eye?
Our Dry Eye Center offers several advanced treatment options tailored to the severity and underlying cause of your condition. These include OptiLight Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, Systane® iLux2® meibomian gland treatment, punctal plugs, prescription eye drops, and warm compress therapy. During your evaluation, we will identify the root cause of your dry eye symptoms and recommend the most effective treatment plan for lasting relief.
Do you offer contact lens fittings for hard-to-fit patients?
Yes. We have extensive experience fitting patients who have difficulty wearing standard contact lenses due to conditions like keratoconus, dry eye, irregular corneas, or a history of refractive surgery. Our hard-to-fit contact lens services include specialty scleral lenses, rigid gas-permeable lenses, and other custom options. We also offer Ortho-K lenses for patients who want to be glasses-free during the day.
