Cataract Surgery
Our cataract surgery specialists perform over 65,000 procedures annually using advanced laser technology and premium intraocular lenses. This outpatient procedure typically takes 15 minutes with local anesthesia, offering rapid recovery and significant vision improvement. Patients receive comprehensive pre-operative evaluations and personalized post-operative care to ensure optimal outcomes.
Glaucoma Surgery
We offer minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries to reduce intraocular pressure and prevent optic nerve damage. Our board-certified surgeons utilize trabeculectomy and drainage implant techniques to preserve vision. Treatment plans include pre-surgical assessments and post-operative monitoring to manage this progressive condition effectively.
Cornea Surgery
Our corneal specialists perform full and partial thickness corneal transplants to treat scarring and degenerative conditions. Using advanced microsurgical techniques, we restore vision clarity while minimizing rejection risks. Patients receive specialized post-operative care including immunosuppressive therapy and regular follow-up examinations.
Dry Eye Treatment
We provide comprehensive dry eye management including prescription medications, punctal plugs, and lifestyle modifications. Our specialists use advanced diagnostic tools to identify underlying causes and develop personalized treatment plans. Therapies focus on improving tear production and reducing ocular surface inflammation for long-term comfort.
Diabetic Retinopathy Care
Our retina specialists offer comprehensive care for diabetic eye disease, including laser photocoagulation and anti-VEGF injections. We provide regular screenings to detect early changes and implement treatment plans to prevent vision loss. Patients receive education on blood sugar management and its impact on ocular health.

Questions
What eye conditions do you treat?
We treat cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, corneal diseases, and dry eye syndrome. Our specialists also handle eyelid disorders and offer refractive error corrections through glasses, contacts, or surgery.
Do you accept my insurance?
We accept Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and most private insurance plans. Contact our billing department to verify coverage details for your specific plan and treatment requirements.
What happens during cataract surgery?
Cataract surgery involves removing the clouded lens and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens. The procedure uses local anesthesia, takes about 15 minutes, and requires no stitches with modern micro-incision techniques.
How do I prepare for eye surgery?
Preparation includes pre-operative eye measurements, medication review, and possibly stopping certain medications. Follow specific instructions about eating, drinking, and eye drop usage before your scheduled procedure.
What are premium lens options?
Premium intraocular lenses include multifocal and astigmatism-correcting lenses that reduce dependence on glasses after cataract surgery. These advanced lenses offer improved vision at multiple distances compared to standard monofocal lenses.
Where are your locations?
We have six locations in New Port Richey, Tampa, Wesley Chapel, Spring Hill, and Zephyrhills. Each facility offers comprehensive eye exams, surgical consultations, and post-operative care with experienced medical professionals.
