Diabetic Eye Exams

​Diabetes can often have ocular implications such as diabetic retinopathy or diabetic cataracts. Annual comprehensive exam with dilation is recommended. Undiagnosed and untreated diabetic retinopathy can often have devastating ocular consequences such as vision loss. Yearly exam can help prevent vision loss and improve outcomes. We utilize a high resolution retinal camera to monitor diabetic retinopathy.

​Cataract Evaluation

Cataracts is one of the most common eye condition in our senior population. Cataract is the clouding of a lens in the eye that affects vision. Cataracts can cause blurry vision, difficulty with low light conditions, and increased sensitivity to glare. Cataracts are a common age-related condition, but it can also be caused by injury, certain medications, or medical conditions. Cataracts can be removed with surgery. We co-manage cataract surgery with a group of skilled ophthalmologists.


​​Glaucoma Evaluation

Picture
Glaucoma is an eye condition involving damage of the optic nerve. Glaucoma develops slowly and may not cause any noticeable visual symptoms initially. It can lead to blindness if left untreated. Factors that increase the risk include age, family history, elevated eye pressure, and certain medical conditions. Treatment for glaucoma may involve eye drops, oral medications, or surgery. Advanced technologies such as OCT and Visual Field Testing are used to detect and treat glaucoma. 

​Macular Degeneration Management

​Macular degeneration is a condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina at the back of the eye. The macula is responsible for sharp central vision, which is needed for activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Macular degeneration can cause a gradual loss of vision in the center of your visual field and can lead to a decrease in overall quality of life. While there is no cure for macular degeneration, there is treatment available to slow its progression and help manage symptoms. Our doctors utilize our advanced imaging technology for early detection and recommend pharmaceuticals that can help prevent progression of macular degeneration.
