Eye Diseases and the Importance of Early Detection
We work to identify the signs of eye diseases early before they have a chance to affect your vision. Our eye exams are the foundation of our lifetime commitment to you and your vision, as early detection is the best way to protect your eyesight.
Our Advanced Imaging Technology
Our team uses a variety of advanced equipment, including the cutting edge Optos ultra-widefield retinal imager, which gives a complete, high-definition image of the back of your eye and the important structures inside of it. The Optos gives us these images without ever needing to dilate your eyes and helps us identify the earliest signs of vision-threatening conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma.

Conditions We Treat
We diagnose and manage a wide range of eye diseases and conditions, including the following:
AMD
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a condition where your eye’s macula, the structure responsible for central vision, starts to break down as you age, eventually leading to vision loss. You won’t notice any overt signs of AMD, but our doctors can identify it at its earliest stages and develop a plan to protect your eyesight.
Glaucoma
Known as “the silent thief of sight,” glaucoma is the term for a condition where your eye’s intraocular pressure (IOP) builds up and pushes on your optic nerve. Eventually, this condition can cause permanent vison loss, but our doctors are skilled at identifying its earliest signs and creating customized treatment plans to safeguard your vision.

Dry Eye
An uncomfortable yet common condition, dry eye disease causes your eyes to feel dehydrated and irritated. This is often due to either inadequate tear production, or low-quality tears. Our team uses advanced diagnostic technology to identify the root cause of your dry eye and then take steps to provide you with fast relief from its symptoms.

Diabetic Eye Disease
Diabetes can affect all aspects of your health, but it can potentially have a large impact on your vision if left unmonitored. Regular eye exams can help us stay ahead of diabetic eye conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy, and we’ll customize a management plan to handle any conditions or issues that may arise.

Surgical Co-Management
We make it our duty to care for your eyes, inside and out, and if they ever require surgery, we’ll be by your side. We work closely with the top surgeons in the area and will co-manage your procedure to ensure a smooth recovery and crystal-clear vision.
