Services
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery removes cloudy lenses and replaces them with artificial implants to restore clear vision. Our surgeons have performed over 10,000 procedures using advanced techniques like laser-assisted and no-stitch methods. Patients benefit from rapid recovery, minimal discomfort, and access to premium lenses like the Light Adjustable Lens for customized post-surgery results.
LASIK Surgery
LASIK reshapes the cornea to correct myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, offering immediate vision improvement with minimal recovery. Eligible patients aged 21-50 receive personalized evaluations using cutting-edge diagnostics. Most achieve 20/20 vision or better within 24 hours, with long-term cost savings compared to lifelong contact and glasses expenses.
Routine Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye exams assess visual acuity, eye pressure, and overall eye health to detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma or macular degeneration. Our optometrists provide updated prescriptions for glasses or contacts while evaluating peripheral vision, pupil responsiveness, and retinal health using advanced diagnostic tools.
Dry Eye Treatment
Dry eye treatment addresses chronic discomfort caused by insufficient tear production or poor tear quality. Options include artificial tears, prescription medications like Restasis, and procedures to block tear drainage. Our specialists identify underlying causes such as environmental factors or autoimmune diseases to create tailored relief plans for long-term eye comfort.
Cosmetic Procedures
Cosmetic services at our Aesthetic Center include dermal fillers, neuromodulators, and HydraFacials to reduce wrinkles and enhance natural beauty. Treatments target facial volume loss, dynamic wrinkles, and sun damage using FDA-approved products like JUVDERM and BOTOX, with results lasting from six months to two years.
