San Juans Vision Source is excited to introduce a new technology, called the Optomap Monaco which will be used as part of your eye exam to take a digital scan of the back of your eye. It will help evaluate the overall health of your retina, and early detect eye diseases such as diabetes, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and even cancer.

Benefit of Optomap Monaco Retinal Scan (retinal digital scan and OCT)

PEMANENT DIGITAL RECORD of our eyes and Provides Baseline data of your eyes. It will also identify the presence of any retinal lesions, such as holes, tears, or detachments, which can be present without any signs or symptoms, and can cause permanent vision loss.
AUTO FLUORESCENCE This device offers a second screening called Auto Fluorescence, which allows the doctor to find many diseases (such as macular degeneration, nerve drusen, diabetic retinopathy) BEFORE they appear in a normal dilated exam.
Until recently, the only way to view the periphery of the back of the eye is to dilate the pupils. With this advanced technology, dilation may not be necessary.

Review the images with your doctor. Your doctor will review the images with you in detail during your exam today.

San Juans Vision Source believes that the Optomap® Retinal Exam is an essential part of your annual comprehensive eye exam.

Why are you asking for my insurance cards again?

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 19:29:47 GMT

We understand it may feel repetitive to provide your insurance card each year—especially if you’ve been a long-time patient and nothing seems to have changed.

However, we request an updated copy annually to ensure we can accurately verify your benefits and help you make the most of your coverage each year. Before your visit, our staff confirms your current health and/or vision insurance details so we can determine copays in advance. This allows us to minimize surprises and keep your out-of-pocket costs as predictable as possible.

Insurance plans often update policy numbers, group numbers, copay structures, or issue new cards even when coverage appears unchanged. Having the most current information on file helps us avoid billing issues, delays, or claim errors—and ultimately helps protect you from unnecessary expenses.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us keep your records up to date and your billing as smooth and accurate as possible.

Neurolens

Neurolens uses microprism technology to encourage proper eye alignment and prevent eye muscles from overworking. This design addresses the root cause of eye misalignment instead of treating it superficially.

We all want to support our health and wellness by taking advantage of modern perks. Although eyeglasses have long been a simple and effective tool to support vision and eye health, their design and technology have come a long way since their conception. Neurolens, which employs specialty prism lens technology to address eye misalignment.

Through proper eye alignment, Neurolens can significantly reduce the strain placed on your visual and nervous systems by alleviating symptoms such as:

Headaches
Eye fatigue
Sensitivity to light
Neck and shoulder discomfort
Motion sickness

If your days entail long hours of staring at a screen, driving great distances, or reading, Neurolens aims to make these activities more comfortable and less taxing.

As humans, our vision is binocular, meaning we have 2 eyes that are meant to work harmoniously. Each eye holds slightly different visual information, and ideally, a person uses these differences to perceive distances and coordinate eye movement.

Eye misalignment, or binocular vision dysfunction (BVD) , occurs when the eyes struggle to work together as a team. This causes the brain to work harder to interpret visual information, straining your eyes and vision, and leading to concerns such as poor depth perception, eye coordination, and focus.

Standard prescription lenses don’t address BVD, which is why Neurolens stands out.
