Primary Care
If you are ever diagnosed with diabetes, your primary care doctor will likely recommend extra close monitoring of your eyes. Diabetic patients should have a dilated retinal examination each year. Diabetic eye disease is the number one loss of vision in working-aged adults. High blood sugar can affect every part of the eye, but the most common changes we see are in the retina. Diabetes often stimulates the growth of new blood vessels in the back of the eye, which ultimately leak and damage the retina. We have the latest instruments used to detect changes in the back of the eye. We would look for tiny bleeds in the back of the eye and refer you out for treatment if these bleeds became vision threatening. We have the latest instruments used to detect changes in the back of the eye. The best prevention of vision loss with diabetes is through lifestyle changes and by working closely with your doctor to lower blood sugar of course! Let us help you be healthy today!

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
He is experienced in the diagnosis and medical treatment of eye disease, including glaucoma and dry eye. He specializes in custom contact lens fittings for specialty lenses such as keratoconus, Ortho-K, bifocal and medically necessary contacts. He also treats and manages contact lens-related problems.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration is the breakdown of the macula, which is the area of the retina responsible for your fine, detailed central sight. This is typically a disease related to aging, but it also has many lifestyle risk factors. View Services
Laser Eye Surgery
Glaucoma is a silent eye disease. It is a condition in which your eye pressure gradually increases, physically damaging your optic nerve, leading to permanent vision loss. You typically won't feel glaucoma or notice the subtle vision loss until it is much too late. We check your eye pressure and look at your optic nerves during every yearly comprehensive exam. If we are ever suspicious that you may be at risk to develop this disease, we would schedule you for further testing. Tests include checking the pressure of the eye, screening for peripheral vision defects looking at how open your drainage angles are, checking your corneal thickness, and analyzing the appearance and health of the optic nerve. If you are diagnosed with glaucoma, we typically prescribe medications that lower the eye pressure. We would begin treatment and use sophisticated technology to monitor for change over time, the hallmark of glaucoma progression! Most forms of glaucoma are successfully treated with eye drops. Laser treatments and eye surgery are secondary treatments that offer alternative ways to treat more advanced glaucoma.
Cataracts
The natural lens in the eye gradually becomes less clear as we get older. When opacities develop in the lens and the lens gets too hazy, vision will be impaired. Our office can diagnose and manage cataract care. View Services
Cataract Surgery
The natural lens in the eye gradually becomes less clear as we get older. When opacities develop in the lens and the lens gets too hazy, vision will be impaired. Our office can diagnose and manage cataract care. When the cataract affects the vision to the extent that you cannot read or see distant objects comfortably and/or glare from bright lights becomes a big problem, we will recommend cataract surgery. Our office co-manages with cataract specialists that are proven experts in cataract surgery. Cataract surgery can provide you with a bright new world of vision. To keep your cataracts slow growing, use sun protection, don't smoke, keep your blood sugar low, and eat your veggies! We love a healthy lifestyle.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Binocular vision disorders can take on many forms. Essentially, the two eyes want to work together as a team! We always evaluate your eye efficiency during yearly exams. The symptoms of a poorly functioning binocular vision symptoms can include headaches, short attention span, losing place while reading, double vision, tired eyes, and many more. There are so many options to improve how your eyes function! We usually start with discussing vision therapy, anti-fatigue lenses, blue light filtering, visual hygiene (take breaks at the computer!), and prism glasses. This is especially important if you have ever been diagnosed with conditions like ADD and ADHD. Let's make sure your eyes aren't making your life harder!

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
The OCT is a non-invasive camera that lets us look at the structure of the layers of your retina and thickness of your optic nerves. We use this testing for conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and unexplained vision changes. Your primary care doctor may also want us to use this on you if you are on certain high-risk medications since these can change your vision.

Ultrasound
Macular degeneration is the breakdown of the macula, which is the area of the retina responsible for your fine, detailed central sight. This is typically a disease related to aging, but it also has many lifestyle risk factors. If we ever detected changes in your macula, we would get an ultrasound of that part of the eye, and also test how well it is functioning with a visual field test. Anything that keeps you young and healthy keeps your eyes young and healthy! To keep your risks down for macular degeneration, make sure you don't smoke, are eating your dark leafy green veggies, and use great sun protection! For extra preventive measures we offer Macuhealth that contains the supplements needed to maintain a healthy macula and help slow down those aging changes.

Lesions
CLARUS 500, the newest ultra-widefield retinal camera from ZEISS, allows clinicians to use color to their diagnostic advantage. ZEISS CLARUS 500 generates images that closely resemble the coloration of the fundus as seen during clinical examination. Color fundus imaging can aid in the diagnosis and documentation of ocular disease, ensuring confidence when evaluating the optic disc, nevi and lesions where color is important.
