Dry Eyes

Dry eye syndrome is a chronic and often progressive condition affecting the surface of the eyes. Depending on its cause and severity, it may not be curable. In most cases, dry eyes can be managed successfully, usually resulting in noticeably greater eye comfort, fewer symptoms, and often, improved vision.
Our doctors are experts at diagnosing and treating dry eye syndrome and other ocular surface diseases. By utilizing the latest in technology, we can develop a treatment regimen designed specifically to manage your particular condition and help alleviate your symptoms.

Cataracts

Cataracts are the most common cause of vision loss in people over age 40, and are the principal cause of blindness in the world. As we age, our natural lenses lose their clarity and result in cloudy vision, often resulting in glare, difficulty seeing at night and problems reading fine print. Cataract surgery should be considered only when they have progressed enough to significantly impair your vision and affect your daily activities. Cataract surgery is a relatively simple, painless procedure and is very successful in restoring vision.  Our doctors work closely with your cataract surgeon by providing all the pre and post-operative care to ensure the best visual outcome.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma refers to a group of eye diseases that cause damage to the optic nerve, which carries visual information from the back of the eye to the brain. Early glaucoma usually has no symptoms, therefore, routine eye exams are critical in the prevention of the disease.
Glaucoma is often associated with higher-than-normal pressure inside the eye, but may also occur when intraocular pressure (IOP) is normal. If left untreated, glaucoma initially causes loss of peripheral vision and can eventually lead to blindness.

​Macular Degeneration

 ​Macular degeneration occurs when there are changes to the macula, the small portion of the retina located on the inside back layer of the eye.The most common risk factors associated with macular degeneration include genetics, a history of smoking, poor diet, a light complexion, excessive sun exposure and most recently, evidence related to the visible blue light emitted from electronic devices such as smart phones, computers, tablets and energy efficient LED light bulbs. Macular degeneration is the leading cause of severe vision loss in adults over age 50. The CDC estimates that 1.8 million people have AMD and another 7.3 million are at substantial risk. Caucasians are at higher risk for developing AMD than other races. Women also develop AMD at an earlier age than men. Some common symptoms are: a gradual loss of ability to see objects clearly, distorted vision, a gradual loss of color vision, and a dark or empty area appearing in the center of vision. If you experience any of these, contact our office immediately.
