Khoury Eye Care, Mays Landing. Serving South Jersey.

Yes, from age five and up. Start as a new patient.

From age five. For children younger than that, a practice set up for pre-verbal testing is the better fit.

Yes, and doing it beforehand saves time in the office. Start as a new patient — bring your insurance card and a list of any medications you take, including eye drops.

Almost certainly. Vision plans and medical plans cover different visits, and many patients have both. We are in network with:

• Vision plans — EyeMed, Davis Vision, Spectera, Superior Vision
• Medical plans — Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicare, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Clover

If you are not sure which plan applies to your visit, or whether a test carries a charge on your plan, call and we will check before your appointment rather than after.

Not in network — but that matters less than it sounds. We bill VSP directly and take the reimbursement, so you are not paying the full fee up front and you are not filing a claim yourself. You are seen, and treated, the same as any other patient.

What VSP pays out of network depends on your plan, and some VSP plans have no out-of-network benefit at all. Call with your plan details before you book and we will tell you where you stand, rather than let you find out afterwards.

No. The exam and the eyewear are separate decisions. You will get a copy of your prescription at no charge and you may fill it anywhere you like, including online. That is your right under federal rules.

A refraction to determine your prescription, an assessment of how the two eyes work together, a measurement of intraocular pressure, and an examination of the front of the eye and the retina. Ultra-widefield imaging captures roughly 200 degrees of the retina in one image, which is how peripheral tears, detachments, and early diabetic changes are found. Visual field screening is also part of every exam, not an add-on. Further testing is added when a finding calls for it.

Often not, but that is decided during the visit rather than promised in advance. Ultra-widefield imaging gives a wide view of the retina without drops, and for many patients that answers what a routine exam is asking.

Dilation is used when it would show something the imaging cannot: a finding that needs a closer or three-dimensional look, a view obstructed by a small pupil or a cataract, symptoms pointing to the far periphery, or a history that calls for it. The two are not interchangeable — they answer slightly different questions — so which you need is a clinical decision made at the time.

If you are dilated, vision stays blurry up close for about four hours and you will be light-sensitive, so bring sunglasses.

Yes. Ultra-widefield retinal imaging is done in the office. It captures a wide view of the retina without drops, which is why many patients complete a routine exam without being dilated — but it is not a replacement for dilation, and drops are used when the imaging leaves a question unanswered. If you have had optomap images taken elsewhere, bring them or have them sent — comparing images across years shows change that no single image can.

Come back. A recheck of your glasses or contact lens prescription is free within three months of your exam. Between three and six months it is half the usual charge, and after six months a full exam fee applies.

No. The procedure is performed by an ophthalmic surgeon. What happens here is the part before and the part after — measuring whether you are a candidate at all, sending those measurements to the surgeon, and seeing you for the follow-up visits once it is done.

If the measurements say you are not a good candidate, you will be told that rather than referred anyway. A thin or irregular cornea, a prescription still changing, or untreated dry eye are all reasons to wait or to do something else instead.

Usually, and it is worth calling before you book. The post-operative schedule is set by the surgeon who operated and the drops are theirs to prescribe, so your surgical center stays involved either way — but the visits themselves can be done here rather than driving back.

Bring the operative report and your current drop schedule to the first visit.

Call. Same-day appointments are held for urgent problems: red eye, pain, discharge, a foreign body, a scratch, or sudden flashes and floaters. If the office is closed, or you cannot reach us, go to a hospital emergency room — most have an ophthalmologist on call. Sudden vision loss, sudden double vision, or a curtain across your vision should be treated as an emergency — call immediately or go to an emergency room.

Usually. Dry eye has several distinct causes and the treatments are not interchangeable, which is why over-the-counter drops work for some people and not others. The visit starts by identifying which type you have — more on dry eye and what to try at home.

Yes. Two options carry FDA authorization: MiSight 1 day contact lenses for children aged 8 to 12 at the start of treatment, and Stellest spectacle lenses for children aged 6 to 12. Low-dose atropine drops are used selectively. We measure axial length to track whether the treatment is working. This is a distinct service from a routine eye exam, and it works best started early.

Glasses can. Stellest spectacle lenses received FDA market authorization in September 2025 and are the first eyeglass lens authorized in the United States for slowing myopia progression. They cover children from age six, which is younger than the contact lens option, and they suit children who are not ready for contacts.

Yes. Toric lenses for astigmatism and multifocal lenses for reading age are routine, as are fittings for irregular corneas.

Yes. Hydroxychloroquine screening requires automated visual fields and OCT together, and both are done in this office. Guidelines call for a baseline examination and annual screening after five years of use. Results are sent back to the prescribing doctor. What the screening involves.

Current AOA examination guidance places patients on GLP-1 medications in an at-risk category, which means a baseline assessment and shorter intervals between exams rather than any single special test. If you have diabetic retinopathy already, that matters more, because rapid improvement in blood sugar can worsen it temporarily. Sudden loss of vision while on these medications is an emergency — call immediately rather than waiting for an appointment.

Yes. Visual field testing is done in the office, including for patients sent by another doctor for that specific test. Bring the referral or the name of the doctor who asked for it, and the results go back to them directly.
