General urgent care clinics are not equipped to properly diagnose or treat most eye emergencies. They lack the specialized instruments needed to examine the eye thoroughly. For true eye emergencies—such as sudden vision changes, eye injuries, infections, foreign bodies, or flashes and floaters—you should contact an eye care provider directly. At Santé Eyecare, we offer same-day emergency eye care appointments in Pflugerville for urgent eye concerns.

A diabetic eye exam focuses on detecting early signs of diabetic retinopathy and other diabetes-related changes in the eye. At Santé Eyecare, we use advanced Optomap retinal imaging and OCT imaging to examine the retina in detail—often before any symptoms appear. We recommend annual diabetic eye exams for all patients managing diabetes and coordinate findings with your primary care or endocrinology team.

Our Optomap retinal imaging captures up to 200° of the retina, providing a detailed view that may reveal early signs of health conditions before symptoms develop. If we identify anything concerning, we recommend follow-up with your primary care physician.

An optometrist (OD) is your primary eye care doctor, providing comprehensive eye exams, diagnosing and treating eye conditions, prescribing glasses and contact lenses, and managing conditions such as glaucoma, dry eye, and diabetic eye disease. An ophthalmologist (MD) is a medical doctor who specializes in eye surgery.

For most people, an optometrist is the right first call and where the majority of eye care occurs. Ophthalmologists are typically needed when surgery becomes necessary, such as for cataracts, retinal detachments, or advanced glaucoma. A good optometrist recognizes when a referral is appropriate and coordinates care seamlessly.

At Santé Eyecare in Pflugerville, we provide full-scope primary eye care and co-manage surgical cases with trusted ophthalmology specialists so patients receive the right care at the right time.
