Services
LASIK Surgery
LASIK surgery offers permanent vision correction using advanced laser technology to reshape the cornea. Our Wavelight Refractive Suite provides sub-millimeter precision for improved visual acuity without glasses or contacts. Ideal for patients with myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism seeking freedom from corrective lenses.
Cataract Surgery
Laser cataract surgery removes clouded lenses and replaces them with premium intraocular implants. Our LenSx Laser system ensures precise incisions and astigmatism correction. Patients benefit from faster recovery and improved night vision compared to traditional methods.
Glaucoma Treatment
We offer comprehensive glaucoma care including medicated eye drops, laser therapy, and surgical interventions. Our specialists monitor optic nerve health and intraocular pressure to prevent vision loss through personalized treatment plans tailored to disease progression.
Corneal Transplant
Full and partial-thickness corneal transplants restore vision damaged by disease or trauma. Our surgeons perform DSAEK and DMEK procedures using donor tissue, with post-operative care including immunosuppressive therapy to ensure graft success and long-term visual improvement.
Cosmetic Procedures
Blepharoplasty removes excess eyelid skin while Botox and Restylane injections reduce facial wrinkles. These FDA-approved treatments enhance appearance and confidence through minimally invasive techniques performed by oculoplastic specialists with aesthetic expertise.
