Services
Cataract Surgery
Our cataract surgery specialists replace cloudy natural lenses with advanced intraocular implants. The procedure takes less than 15 minutes per eye and uses ultrasound technology to remove cataracts while correcting refractive errors. Patients receive personalized post-operative care with medicated drops and follow-up monitoring for optimal recovery outcomes.
Diabetic Eye Care
We provide comprehensive monitoring and treatment for diabetes-related eye complications. Our specialists use advanced imaging to detect early retinal changes and offer laser therapy and medication injections. Regular dilated exams help prevent vision loss through early intervention and coordinated care with primary physicians.
Glaucoma Management
Our glaucoma specialists employ visual field testing and nerve fiber analysis for early detection. Treatment options include medicated eye drops, laser procedures, and surgical interventions to control intraocular pressure. We emphasize regular monitoring to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve peripheral vision.
Comprehensive Eye Exams
These thorough evaluations assess visual acuity, eye health, and systemic disease indicators. The 60-90 minute exams include pupil dilation for retinal examination and intraocular pressure measurement. Our doctors evaluate ocular history and family risk factors to detect conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
Contact Lens Fittings
Our opticians provide customized contact lens fittings separate from routine eye exams. We offer various lens types including toric and multifocal options. The fitting process ensures proper lens alignment and comfort while providing care instructions for maintaining ocular health with contact lens wear.
