Services
- Cataract Surgery – A surgical procedure performed by an ophthalmologist to remove the clouded natural lens of the eye and replace it with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This outpatient procedure can restore clear vision for patients experiencing vision loss due to cataracts, typically associated with aging. An optometrist often provides pre-surgical screening and post-operative follow-up care.
- Comprehensive Eye Exams – A thorough evaluation of overall eye health and vision conducted by an optometrist or ophthalmologist. This extensive examination includes visual acuity testing, prescription assessment, eye muscle balance, peripheral vision check, and detailed examination of eye structures using advanced diagnostic equipment. These exams can detect early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma, diabetes-related eye changes, and potential vision problems.
- Cornea – Specialized medical care focusing on the eye’s clear front surface (cornea). This service addresses conditions such as corneal infections, injuries, dystrophies, and complex conditions like keratoconus. An optometrist may provide initial diagnosis and management, while specialized ophthalmologists perform advanced treatments including corneal transplants and specialized contact lens fittings.
- Cosmetic & Oculoplastics – A specialized service addressing both medical and aesthetic concerns related to the eye and surrounding structures. This includes treatments for drooping eyelids, tear duct disorders, orbital reconstructions, cosmetic eyelid surgeries, and management of facial skin cancers around the eye. An optometrist might provide initial screening, with oculoplastic surgeons performing detailed procedures.
- Dry Eye – A comprehensive treatment approach for chronic eye dryness and discomfort. Services include diagnostic testing to determine the underlying cause, personalized treatment plans involving artificial tears, prescription medications, advanced therapies like punctal plugs, and lifestyle recommendations. An optometrist typically provides initial diagnosis and management of mild to moderate dry eye syndrome.

This includes comprehensive screening, advanced diagnostic imaging, regular eye pressure measurements, and tailored treatment plans involving eye drops, laser treatments, or surgical interventions.
- LASIK Consultation – A comprehensive evaluation to determine candidacy for laser vision correction surgery. The consultation involves detailed eye measurements, corneal mapping, vision assessment, and personalized recommendations. An optometrist typically conducts the initial screening, with specialized surgeons performing the actual LASIK procedure to correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
- Retina – Specialized medical and surgical care addressing disorders of the eye’s retina, including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachments, and inherited retinal diseases.
