Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect during a comprehensive eye exam?
Most routine visits take about 30 minutes, though we recommend allowing extra time if you plan to explore eyewear with our team. If dilation or additional testing is needed, your visit may take longer. Each exam includes a personalized discussion of your concerns, advanced diagnostic testing, and recommendations tailored to your eyes, lifestyle, and visual needs.
Why do patients choose Eycon for dry eye treatment?
At Eycon, dry eye treatment is a core specialty. Every evaluation begins with advanced diagnostic imaging to identify the severity of your condition and the underlying cause. While some patients improve with medical-grade drops or simple lifestyle changes, others benefit from advanced in-office therapies like IPL, RF, or DMSt - treatments that go beyond symptom relief to address the root cause of inflammation, gland dysfunction, or tear film instability. We help your eyes feel normal again, and stay that way.
Who are scleral lenses for?
Scleral lenses are life-changing for people with complex vision needs including keratoconus, post-surgical corneas, severe dryness, or high astigmatism. At Eycon, we specialize in fully custom scleral lens fittings, using precision scans and advanced mapping to create lenses that match the unique shape of each eye. Many of our patients come to us after years of discomfort, blurry vision, or failed fittings and leave seeing better than they ever thought possible.
Do you carry designer frames?
Yes. Our optical studio features curated eyewear from luxury and independent designers, along with one-on-one styling support to help you find frames that fit your face, prescription, and lifestyle.
What kind of aesthetic treatments do you offer?
We offer non-invasive facial aesthetic treatments including IPL photofacial, radiofrequency, and TriLift to support skin tone, texture, firmness, and natural rejuvenation.
