Care for Macular Degeneration
Macular is the center portion of the retina which functions like film in a camera for our vision. The risk factors for macular degeneration are: age, race, smoking, systemic lipid problems, and UV light exposure. Macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in the U.S.A. Most people with macular degeneration have the dry form, for which there is no known treatment. The less common, the wet form is associated with the formation of fragile blood vessels, resulting in bleeding and irreversible scar formation. The wet form can be treated with injection and laser procedures.
Some common symptoms of macular degeneration are: a gradual loss of ability to see objects clearly, distorted vision, a gradual loss of color vision and a dark or empty area appearing in the center of your vision. If you experience any of these, call us today to schedule your comprehensive eye exam immediately.
Recent studies indicate that certain vitamins and minerals may help prevent or slow the progression of macular degeneration. If you are 40 years or older, an annual, comprehensive dilated eye examination is an important first step to maintain your eye health. Early detection of AMD, along with utilizing vitamins and minerals may change how you see things.

Diabetic Eye Care
Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of blindness in the USA. The best way to prevent diabetic retinopathy is to have your eyes checked frequently. If you are diabetic without retinopathy then you need a yearly dilated eye exam. If you have had diabetes for five or more years, and you have a high Hb A1C level, you are at a higher risk for diabetic retinopathy and may need to be seen more than once a year. Most medical and optical insurances cover yearly preventive dilated eye exams for diabetic patients.
Once it is found, diabetic eye diseases can be managed by closely monitoring of the condition as well as laser, injection and surgeries.

Glaucoma Care
Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the pressure of the eyes increase, causing damage to the nerve fibers in the optic nerve which may lead to vision loss. The pressure increase happens when the passages that normally allow fluid in your eyes to drain become clogged or blocked.
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness in the U.S. Age is the highest risk factor and it often occurs in people over the age 40. Other risk factors include: people with a family history of glaucoma, African Americans, and those who are strongly near-sighted or diabetic.
The most common type of glaucoma is open angle glaucoma, which develops gradually and painlessly without symptoms. A rarer type closed angle glaucoma, occurs rapidly and its symptoms may include; blurred vision, loss of side vision, seeing colored rings around lights, and pain or redness in the eyes.
Glaucoma cannot be prevented, but if diagnosed and treated early, can be controlled. Vision lost due to glaucoma cannot be restored. That is why yearly eye examinations for people at risk for glaucoma is a must. Recent studies show that measurements of corneal thickness is a very important component in testing for glaucoma. Make sure your next eye exam includes a corneal thickness measurement (pachymetry.)
A comprehensive examination should include:
- tonometry– test to measure the pressure in your eyes.
- pachymetry- an examination of the inside of your eyes and optic nerves.
- visual field test- to check for changes in central and side vision.
Our comprehensive plus examination includes visual field test, tonometry, pachymetry, and high resolution retinal photo to ensure and monitor your eyes for any signs of glaucoma.
The treatment for glaucoma includes prescription eye drops and medications to lower the pressure in your eyes. In some cases, laser treatment or surgery may be effective in reducing the pressure. Lost vision due to glaucoma can not be restored but our detailed low vision services may restore the quality of your life.

Multi-focal Contact Lenses
If you are over the age of 40 and are looking for contact lenses that can improve all your vision needs from near to far, you will need the multi-focal contact lenses. The multi-focal contact lenses have come a long way in the past 2 to 3 years. They are much more comfortable and their visual clarity has much improved. Some of the newer multi-focal contact lenses, such as hybrid multi-focals and RGP (rigid gas permeable) multi-focal contact lenses, are far superior in vision clarity than common soft bifocal contact lenses.
Due to the complicated nature of the multi-focal contact lens fitting, there is more time, effort and experience needed to fit the contact lenses properly. For the multi-focal contact lens consultation, if possible, we encourage you to bring all contact lenses that you have tried. This will guide us in the right direction to get the best contact lenses for you.
