Comprehensive Eye Examinations and Medical Diagnosis of Adult Eye Disorders
Our board-certified eye doctors provide complete exams checking for cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. If needed, a prescription will be given to you for glasses.
Small Incision No-Stitch Cataract Surgery With Lens Implants
A cataract is a loss of transparency, or clouding, of the normally clear lens of the eye. When the lens gets cloudy enough to obstruct vision, glasses or contact lenses may not help. We recommend cataract surgery when your vision interferes with your lifestyle. Cataract surgery is a very successful operation. One and a half million people have this procedure every year. We use the most modern technique of phacoemulsification and small incision surgery coupled with laser membrane lyses. We remove the lens through a small incision and replace it with a state-of-the-art lens implant. Our surgical techniques enable our patients to resume most normal activities quickly. Our doctors use the latest in intraocular lens technology including the new multifocal ReSTOR and Crystalens implants and the STAAR Toric implant for patients with astigmatism.
Cosmetic and Reconstructive Eye-Plastic Surgery
Many patients come to us for procedures to improve their appearance. Blepharoplasty is a procedure that removes baggy or droopy eyelid skin to improve your looks and self image, as well as your vision. Cosmetic blemishes or scars on the eyelids or face can be removed easily in our office surgical suite. Many patients are referred for reconstructive procedures following skin cancer removal or traumatic injuries. Tearing problems can also be treated.
Corneal Disease and Transplant Surgery
Our cornea specialist has had advanced training in the treatment of corneal diseases and in performing cornea transplants. Patients who’s vision is compromised by clouding or scaring of the cornea can be helped through the very successful transplant of donor corneal tissue.
Glaucoma Diagnosis and Treatment
Glaucoma is a condition in which vision is lost due to damage to the optic nerve. Increased pressure in the eye or poor blood flow to the optic nerve causes this damage. Glaucoma can cause blind spots to develop and, if untreated, can restrict your peripheral and eventually your central vision. Many patients are unaware that they have glaucoma, because in most cases, there are no symptoms. We utilize the Heidelberg Optic Nerve Analyzer system that allow us to identify glaucoma much earlier than ever before possible. Advanced medications and new lasers are used to treat glaucoma with outstanding success.
Botox Injections
Botox, contrary to most beliefs is not a new drug. We have been using Botox for functional and cosmetic problems for over ten years. We have extensive experience in treating wrinkles and frown lines as well as facial tics and habit spasms. Ask about our complimentary Botox consultation to see if Botox could improve your appearance.
Emergency Eye Care
We often care for patients with sight threatening eye emergencies. Patients with these problems are referred by our local emergency rooms, community doctors, or can walk in to the office. You can rest assured that if you are ever the one with the acute problem you will be cared for immediately. Our doctor on emergency call can be reached at
954-977-8770.
Contact lens fitting
Our staff Optometrist is a specialist in fitting contact lenses. If you have ever wanted to try contacts please ask us to assist you with a contact lens fitting evaluation. If you are a long standing contact lens wearer and would like to get your lenses updated, please schedule an appointment with our optometrist.
Eyeglass prescriptions
If prescription glasses are necessary for you to see and you are not a good candidate for refractive surgery, we will prescribe them for you. The next time you need new glasses, let us help you achieve the best vision possible.
