Helping You Protect Your Vision, One Visit at a Time
Living with diabetes means keeping an eye on your long-term health and your eyes are a critical part of that. We provide diabetic eye exams that check for early signs of damage and help you stay ahead of complications.
Whether you’ve just been diagnosed or have managed diabetes for years, we’re here to guide your care with clear information and straightforward follow-ups.
What is a Diabetic Eye Exam?
A diabetic eye exam is more than a regular vision check. It includes a detailed look at the back of your eye including the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels to screen for diabetic retinopathy, swelling, or leakage.
We also assess overall eye health and track changes over time, giving you and your healthcare team the information needed to make confident decisions.
Why It Matters
Diabetic eye disease is a leading cause of vision loss, and it can progress without noticeable symptoms. Regular eye exams help catch changes early, often before you feel or see anything wrong.
With the right monitoring, many issues can be treated or managed effectively but only if they’re caught in time.
What We Evaluate During Your Visit
Dr. Reeves checks for:
-
Diabetic retinopathy
-
Macular swelling or bleeding
-
Damage to small retinal blood vessels
-
Signs of glaucoma or cataracts
-
Tear film quality and dry eye symptoms (which are common in diabetic patients)
We also coordinate care with your primary care provider or endocrinologist when needed, especially if exam results show new or changing concerns.
What to Expect at Our Myrtle Beach Office
Your diabetic eye exam is handled in a relaxed, efficient setting. We use imaging tools to capture detailed views of your retina and optic nerve and check your eye pressure and tear film.
If you wear glasses or contacts, we’ll update your prescription as part of the visit. And if you have questions. We take the time to answer them clearly, without overcomplicating things.
Friendly Walk-In After-Hour Support When You Need It
If your schedule doesn’t allow for a traditional appointment, we’re still here to help. We accept walk-ins for diabetic eye exams and offer after-hours support for urgent eye concerns. Located inside Coastal Grand Mall, we’re easy to find and ready when you need us.
