Ophthalmology Services
• Cataract Surgery: Cataracts are a common age-related condition that can cloud the lens of the eye, leading to blurry vision and difficulty seeing in low light. At The Eye MD, our skilled ophthalmologists perform cataract surgery to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens, restoring clear vision and improving quality of life.
• Glaucoma Surgery: Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss if left untreated. Our ophthalmologists specialize in various glaucoma surgeries, including trabeculectomy and minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), to lower intraocular pressure and prevent further vision loss.
• Dry Eye Treatment: Dry eye syndrome is a common condition characterized by a lack of sufficient tears to lubricate the eyes properly. Our ophthalmologists offer a range of dry eye treatments, including prescription eye drops, punctal plugs, and advanced therapies like LipiFlow® and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, to help relieve symptoms and improve eye comfort.
• Diabetic Retinopathy: Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the blood vessels in the retina, leading to vision loss if left untreated. Our ophthalmologists specialize in diabetic eye care and offer advanced treatments such as laser photocoagulation and intravitreal injections to manage diabetic retinopathy and preserve vision.
• Macular Degeneration: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. Our ophthalmologists provide comprehensive care for patients with AMD, including intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF medications and photodynamic therapy, to slow the progression of the disease and preserve remaining vision.
• Laser Eye Surgery: Laser eye surgery, including LASIK and PRK, is a popular option for correcting refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Our experienced eye surgeons use state-of-the-art laser technology to reshape the cornea and improve vision, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.
