Services
Cataract Surgery
Our advanced cataract surgery uses phacoemulsification technology to remove clouded lenses and implant intraocular lenses. Patients benefit from no-stitch procedures and rapid recovery. We offer monofocal and multifocal lens options to reduce dependence on glasses. Our surgeons perform thousands of these procedures annually with exceptional outcomes.
LASIK Eye Surgery
Custom LASIK procedures correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism using blade-free technology. Our board-certified specialists achieve 98% patient satisfaction with 20/20 or better vision. Comprehensive pre-op evaluations ensure optimal candidacy for this life-changing procedure.
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Full-spectrum eye examinations detect vision changes and ocular diseases. Our doctors assess visual acuity, eye pressure, and retinal health. We recommend annual exams for diabetics and patients over 60, with specialized testing for contact lens fittings and pre-surgical evaluations.
Glaucoma Treatment
We diagnose and manage glaucoma through tonometry, visual field testing, and OCT imaging. Treatment options include medicated drops, laser therapy, and surgical interventions. Regular monitoring prevents optic nerve damage and vision loss in at-risk patients.
Oculoplastics
Board-certified surgeons perform blepharoplasty and ptosis repair for functional and cosmetic improvements. We also offer BOTOX Cosmetic injections for facial rejuvenation. These procedures address drooping eyelids and enhance patients' appearance while improving vision when necessary.
