Dr. Bruce Meyer recently received the Paul Berman Memorial Distinguished Service award acknowledging 19 years of service to NJ Special Olympics Vision Programs

Dr. Meyer is an active Associate Member of the American Academy of Orthokeratology and Myopia Control. This group of caring doctors is very concerned about the dramatic increase in Myopia (nearsightedness) in the United States and around the world. Estimates are that by 2020, as much as 50% of all U.S. children will become myopic. In some parts of Asia, as much as 80 to 90% of children are myopic already.

The organization is dedicated to advancing education and promoting techniques to minimize myopic progression to include:

1. environmental management including limiting screen time and facilitating outdoor activity
2. Orthokeratology (Corneal Reshaping) which involves overnight contact lens wear to eliminate the need for optical correction and retard myopic progression
3. the use of soft multifocal contacts to reduce progression
4. the use of eye drops to minimize progression.

We provide comprehensive eye examinations including computer assisted prescription analysis, the evaluation of how your eyes work as a team and focus to closer distances such as while reading or working on a computer, and dilation of the pupil to detect eye diseases like Glaucoma, Cataract and Macula Degeneration. We also identify systemic diseases such as Diabetes and Hypertension. We treat such common problems as dry eye, red eye and ocular allergy as well, through the prescription of topical or oral medication.
