Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams assess vision health, detect ocular diseases, and identify systemic conditions like diabetes. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we evaluate refractive errors, glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal health. Patients receive personalized recommendations for corrective lenses or medical treatment, ensuring optimal visual acuity and long-term eye health through annual screenings.
Dry Eye Disease Treatment
We specialize in managing dry eye disease with evidence-based therapies including Mibo Thermoflo and OptiLight IPL treatments. Our approach targets meibomian gland dysfunction, reducing inflammation and restoring tear film stability. Customized treatment plans combine in-office procedures with at-home care to alleviate symptoms like irritation and fluctuating vision for sustained relief.
Cataract Surgery
Our cataract surgery utilizes advanced techniques to replace cloudy lenses with intraocular implants. Performed on an outpatient basis, the procedure involves precise lens extraction and power calculation for improved vision. We offer preoperative evaluations, traditional surgery, and laser-assisted options to minimize dependence on glasses post-surgery.
Glaucoma Evaluation
Early detection of glaucoma involves measuring intraocular pressure, optic nerve assessment, and visual field testing. We provide medical management through prescription eye drops, laser treatments like SLT, and surgical interventions to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve vision for patients at risk of blindness.
Diabetic Eye Exams
These specialized exams monitor diabetes-related complications such as retinopathy, macular edema, and neovascularization. Through retinal imaging and fluorescein angiography, we detect vascular leakage or abnormal blood vessel growth. Treatment options include laser therapy and intravitreal injections to prevent vision loss.

My cataract surgery was not something I was looking forward to having. However, Dr. Desai was patient and explained everything that was to happen clearly and assured me often. The surgery was a success and my vision is improving every day.
