Contact Lenses, Eye Exams, and LASIK Surgery
We provide regular eye exams for our patients. By testing their vision and correcting any vision problems that we find, we can find a diagnosis and create a treatment plan. Eye exams are crucial in early detection for eye conditions and diseases that can progress and result in possible blindness.
We can also recommend the right contact lenses for your condition. These can be a great alternative to eyeglasses if that is something that you are looking for and can even help prevent eye infections from occurring. Depending on your vision, we can discuss daily or monthly contacts that can assist with daily activities. We can also perform LASIK surgery in order to correct vision problems, which is also a quick procedure.
Treating Eye Conditions
Our ophthalmologist can help treat macular degeneration, cataracts, vision loss. Nutritional supplements and medications are the best treatment methods for macular degeneration. For cataracts, we recommend surgery, which doesn’t take very long. If there are any vision loss problems, we can run tests and find out what the cause may be. For any advanced conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy, we can perform MicroPulse laser therapy and recommend further treatments that we believe may be helpful.
Eye Trauma, Floaters, and Glaucoma
We first do an eye exam for patients with any with eye trauma. The exam helps to identify the cause and helps us create the right treatment. We may also recommend variety of treatment options, ranging from flushing your eyes with an eyewash to a surgical procedure. If your vision creates spots known as floaters, these are also found through an eye exam. However, you often don't require medical treatment if you are seeing floaters. If these floaters impair your vision significantly, our ophthalmologist can perform a surgery to take out your vitreous and replace it. We diagnose also diagnose glaucoma with an eye exam and treat it with eyedrops, microsurgery, and laser therapy.
