​​​​​​​Glaucoma Management

If you’ve been diagnosed with glaucoma, you’re probably already familiar with the typical options in glaucoma treatment – eye drops, laser treatment or traditional surgery. While these are certainly effective, especially when glaucoma is diagnosed early, researchers have been working hard to offer new glaucoma treatments.

​​​​​​​Cataract Surgery

If you’ve been diagnosed with cataracts, you may wonder if cataract surgery is right around the corner. Not to worry. There are many preventive steps you can take to slow the progression of cataracts and preserve your vision.

​​​​​​​Lipiflow

Lipiflow is a new technological solution that addresses the underlying cause of your dry eyes, rather than simply treating the symptoms. It is most effective at helping patients whose dry eyes are caused by meibomian gland dysfunction – a condition characterized by problems with the way that the meibomian glands produce the oil that forms an essential part of our tear film.

​​​​​​​Dry Eye Treatment

While dry eye isn’t a serious condition, it can have a major impact on your quality of life. You may find your eyes get tired faster or you have difficulty reading. Not to mention the discomfort of a burning sensation or blurry vision. 

​​​​​​​Comprehensive Eye Care

If you’ve had a vision screening recently, you might say, “My vision is fine! I don’t need a comprehensive eye exam.” But a vision screening provides a limited perspective on the overall health of your eyes. 

​​​​​​​Diabetic Eye Care

Eye disease that is caused by diabetes is currently the number one cause of blindness and vision loss. Due to the increased risk in diabetic patients, doctors recommend that people over 30 with diabetes get an annual dilated eye exam. Diabetic patients under 30 should get this exam five years after they have been diagnosed.

​​​​​​​Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration, commonly referred to as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), is the single largest cause of sight loss in the developed world and affects more than 10 million Americans. It usually affects people over the age of 60, but has been known to affect those who are younger.

​​​​​​​Botox

Botox® is a safe and effective preparation used to block nerve impulses to the muscles, preventing the muscles from contracting. Botox® was first used by ophthalmologists in 1986 to treat eye muscle problems and facial spasms, and now, is also used for cosmetic purposes, including reducing wrinkles around the eyes.
