Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  Glaucoma is a disease that affects the optic nerve, the part of the eye which receives images collected by the retina and sends them to the brain. Every eye maintains a certain amount of internal pressure, called intraocular pressure. When this pressure rises to abnormal levels however, it can put extra stress on the optic nerve, causing significant damage. Optic nerve damage results in loss of vision, and ultimately blindness.
• Ophthalmology
  The American Academy of Ophthalmology is the largest national membership association of Eye MDs with over 7,000 members internationally. The website provides an in-depth look at eye care health, while providing their membership with ongoing learning and support.
• Macular Degeneration
  Macular degeneration affects cells in the macula, which is the part of the retina responsible for central vision. Central vision is essential for most basic tasks like reading, driving, recognizing people, etc. Thus, although macular degeneration leaves peripheral vision un-impaired, it can be quite debilitating in its advanced state.

Advancements in cataract surgery have made it possible for patients who have experienced dull or blurred vision before surgery able to see sharper, brighter images following surgery. With this new technology many patients can do so without the dependence of glasses.
• Eye Exam

There is no pain or discomfort associated with an exam, and they typically take less than an hour.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  During cataract surgery, which is usually performed under local or topical anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Patients are given topical numbing drops and IV sedation, or twilight anesthesia, to ensure that they are comfortable and relaxed for the procedure. During cataract surgery a new lens (intraocular lens), replaces the old lens. Your ophthalmologist performs this delicate surgery by using a small incision and ultrasound energy to break up the cataract. Once the cataract is removed, an artificial lens is then placed into the eye to focus light onto the retina. The entire procedure takes less than an hour. Patients are sent home the very same day and return to normal activities within a couple of days.

Surgeons

• Reconstructive Surgery
  This is a specialized exam conducted by a opthalmologist who is a sub-specialist in plastic and reconstructive surgery of the eyes. During the initial appointment, the physician will exam the condition of the eyelids both upper and lower as well as the brow to determine if further testing is needed to confirm that the eyelid or brow maybe causing a decrease in the "visual field" that the patient is able to see. Usually photos are taken to assist in this determination, as well as possibly ordering a Visual Field diagnostic test. This test will provide a definitive "map" as to whether the patient's field of vision is being obstructed due to excessive skin in the upper eyelid which may also be caused by the burrowing of the brow.

Plastic Surgeons
