Services
Cataract Surgery
Our no-stitch cataract surgery restores vision through advanced phacoemulsification techniques. This outpatient procedure uses ultrasonic energy to remove clouded lenses and implant intraocular replacements. Patients benefit from rapid recovery times and improved visual acuity, with most resuming normal activities within days of treatment.
YAG Laser Surgery
In-office YAG laser procedures address secondary cataracts and glaucoma with precision technology. The non-invasive treatment creates microscopic openings to improve fluid drainage and vision clarity. Sessions typically last 10-15 minutes with immediate post-procedure mobility for patients.
Glaucoma Laser Surgery
Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) manages open-angle glaucoma by targeting specific cells in the eye's drainage system. This 5-minute procedure reduces intraocular pressure without harming surrounding tissue, offering a repeatable treatment option with minimal side effects compared to traditional medications.
Diabetic Retinopathy Treatment
Laser photocoagulation treatments prevent vision loss from diabetic retinopathy by sealing leaking blood vessels and reducing retinal swelling. Our targeted approach preserves peripheral vision while addressing microvascular complications associated with diabetes, requiring multiple sessions for optimal results.
Blepharoplasty Surgery
Functional blepharoplasty removes excess eyelid skin obstructing vision. This surgical procedure improves peripheral vision by eliminating sagging tissue while addressing cosmetic concerns. Recovery typically involves 1-2 weeks of swelling management with permanent vision field improvement.
