Eye Disease Management in Wilmington, CA
helping you protect your sight
Whether you’ve already been diagnosed with an eye disease or you’re just starting to notice vision changes, we’re here to guide you with clarity, education, and care you can trust.
Our patients include seniors, working adults, and people living with chronic health conditions like diabetes, all of whom rely on their vision for independence, safety, and quality of life. If your vision is changing, we’ll help you understand what’s happening and what steps to take next.
Ocular Diseases Our Optometrists Monitor
We provide long-term support for various eye diseases that affect your ability to see clearly and comfortably, especially those that may not show symptoms in the early stages. Here are some of the conditions we help manage:
Glaucoma
A condition that causes damage to the optic nerve, often due to high eye pressure. Glaucoma develops slowly and without pain, but without treatment, it can lead to permanent vision loss. We monitor your eye pressure and optic nerve health regularly to catch and track changes over time.
Diabetic Retinopathy
If you live with diabetes, yearly eye exams are essential. Diabetic retinopathy occurs when high blood sugar levels cause damage to the small blood vessels in the back of the eye (the retina). We offer wye care for diabetic patients and chronic conditions in Wilmington, using non-invasive imaging to detect early signs and monitor changes over time.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
AMD affects the central part of your vision and is one of the leading causes of vision loss in adults over 60. Early signs can be subtle, but regular checkups help us catch changes and recommend supportive care or referrals when needed.
Cataracts
Cataracts develop as the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy over time. We can diagnose cataracts early and provide co-management if surgery is eventually needed, working closely with local ophthalmologists to support you.
Other Retinal & Optic Nerve Concerns
From retinal thinning to optic nerve changes, our team keeps a close eye on structural issues that may require ongoing observation or specialist referral.
Services at Wilmington Eye Care Optometry
If you’ve been diagnosed with an eye condition, or you're at risk due to age, family history, or health conditions like diabetes, we’ll create a personalized care plan based on your needs. Your ongoing management may include:
Regular vision testing and eye pressure checks.
Optic nerve and retinal imaging.
Routine screenings for disease progression.
Referrals or co-management with ophthalmologists, if needed.
Education about your condition, so you always understand what’s next.
We Coordinate with Your Medical Team
If you're already working with a primary care doctor or specialist, we’ll communicate and collaborate as needed. For patients with diabetes, this coordination helps ensure your eye care is part of your overall health plan, not treated in isolation.
We also work with trusted local surgeons to co-manage care for conditions like cataracts or advanced glaucoma, so your transition from diagnosis to treatment is seamless and stress-free.
