Protect Your Vision with a Comprehensive Eye Exam
Your vision is one of your most important senses, and protecting it starts with a thorough eye exam. At Valley Eye Physicians & Surgeons, we provide comprehensive eye exams that go beyond checking your prescription.
Dr. Velez and the team evaluate the overall health of your eyes, screen for early signs of disease, and create personalized care plans to keep your vision clear and comfortable for years to come.
Whether you are due for a routine exam, concerned about changes in your vision, or need management for a condition like glaucoma, cataracts, or macular degeneration, we are here to provide guidance every step of the way.

Comprehensive Exams with a Medical Focus
Our team uses innovative diagnostic equipment to perform thorough assessments that go beyond standard vision testing. During your visit, we will evaluate:
- Visual acuity and prescription changes
- Eye pressure and optic nerve health
- Retinal and macular health using diagnostic imaging
- Corneal shape and clarity
- Tear film and ocular surface function
These evaluations allow us to diagnose and manage a wide range of eye conditions early, when treatment can be most effective.
Eye Diseases We Screen For
Eye health often changes gradually, especially as we age. Regular exams help detect and treat conditions that can threaten vision over time. Some of the diseases and conditions we screen for and manage include:
- Cataracts: Clouding of the eye’s natural lens that can blur or dull vision
- Glaucoma: Damage to the optic nerve caused by increased eye pressure
- Macular degeneration (AMD): A condition that affects central vision
- Diabetic eye disease: Retinal damage caused by changes in blood sugar
- Uveitis: Inflammation inside the eye that can cause pain and light sensitivity
Because our clinic provides both medical and surgical ophthalmology services, we are able to manage all stages of these diseases in-house, from early diagnosis to surgical treatment when necessary.
Our Surgical and Diagnostic Experience
Valley Eye Physicians & Surgeons offers access to care for complex eye conditions. When treatment extends beyond routine management, our ophthalmologists can perform a full range of procedures, including:
- Cataract surgery and intraocular lens implants
- Glaucoma procedures to help lower eye pressure and preserve vision
- Retina surgeries, such as membrane peels, macular hole repairs, and retinal detachment repair
All procedures are performed using modern diagnostic and surgical technology at our fully equipped locations in Ayer, Marlboro, and Worcester.
Why Consistent Eye Exams Matter
Even if you are seeing clearly, regular eye exams are an important part of preventive health care. Many conditions, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, or diabetic retinopathy, can develop without early symptoms.
Early detection allows our team to take steps to protect your vision and prevent avoidable vision loss. We recommend that most adults schedule an exam every 1–2 years. Seniors or patients with systemic conditions such as diabetes may require more frequent monitoring.
Dr. Velez and the team are committed to supporting your long-term visual health. Contact us to schedule your next appointment today.
