Services
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery removes clouded lenses and replaces them with artificial intraocular lenses. Our surgeons use advanced techniques like laser-assisted procedures to restore clear vision. This treatment addresses symptoms like blurred vision and light sensitivity, offering patients improved visual clarity and quality of life.
Routine Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye exams evaluate vision health and detect conditions like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Using specialized instruments, our doctors assess eye function and prescribe corrective lenses while screening for diseases such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy during these preventive check-ups.
Glaucoma Treatment
Our glaucoma management includes laser therapy and surgical interventions to reduce intraocular pressure. These treatments prevent optic nerve damage and vision loss through early detection and personalized care plans tailored to each patient's condition progression.
Dry Eye Treatment
Dry eye treatment addresses chronic tear deficiency using specialized drops, inflammation reduction techniques, and eyelid therapies. We help patients manage symptoms like irritation and blurred vision through customized approaches that improve ocular surface health and comfort.
Retina Care
Retina care focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the eye's light-sensitive tissue. Our specialists manage diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal detachments using advanced imaging and surgical techniques to preserve and restore vision.

Dr. Corrent is excellent. He is professional and knowledgeable. I have great confidence in him as my Doctor. His technicians are efficient, professional and patient-friendly. However the clerical staff did not return calls in a timely manner and sometimes not at all.

BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS OFFICE. When I made the appointment, Katherine told me they take my insurance. When I arrived at the appointment, they wanted to charge me for their services because my insurance didn't cover the eye exam. It's called BAIT AND SWITCH.
