LASIK Surgery
Paveloff Vision Center offers bladeless LASIK using IntraLase technology for precise, safe vision correction. Custom iDesign mapping ensures tailored treatment for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Patients achieve rapid recovery with reduced dependence on glasses, benefiting from over 25 years of surgical expertise and FDA-approved advancements.
Cataract Surgery
We specialize in laser-assisted cataract surgery with advanced intraocular lenses like PanOptix Trifocal and ReSTOR. Our minimally invasive techniques restore clarity while correcting astigmatism and presbyopia. Patients enjoy faster healing and reduced postoperative discomfort through personalized pre-op consultations and state-of-the-art LenSx laser technology.
Glaucoma Treatment
Our comprehensive glaucoma management includes Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) and Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS). We utilize iStent devices and microtrabeculectomies to safely lower intraocular pressure. Regular monitoring and customized medication plans ensure long-term optic nerve protection for early to advanced cases.
Macular Degeneration Care
We diagnose and manage dry and wet age-related macular degeneration using Amsler Grid testing and fluorescein angiography. Treatment options include anti-VEGF injections, photodynamic therapy, and nutritional supplementation. Our team provides low-vision aids and lifestyle guidance to maintain quality of life for patients with central vision loss.
Dry Eye Therapy
Our dry eye specialists create personalized treatment plans combining prescription medications, punctal plugs, and lifestyle modifications. Advanced diagnostics identify underlying causes like meibomian gland dysfunction. Patients receive ongoing support to reduce irritation, improve tear production, and enhance overall ocular surface health.
