General Practitioners

• Headaches
• Pediatric Care
  Dr. Rana received her optometry training and her Masters in Clinical Optometry degree from Pacific University College of Optometry, Oregon. She completed her residency training in Pediatrics and Binocular Vision at the Illinois College of Optometry.

Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  Risks include inflammation, infection, retinal detachment, development of capsular scar or cloudiness in the visual axis, clouding of the vitreous, and glaucoma.
• Ophthalmology
  A life-long resident of New Jersey, Dr. Sun completed her undergraduate education at Rutgers College where she graduated Summa Cum Laude and as a member of Phi Betta Kappa National Honor Society. She then received her medical degree from Robert Wood Johnson School of Medicine in Piscataway followed by a residency in ophthalmology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York. Dr. Sun completed her pediatric ophthalmology fellowship at Storm Eye Institute, Medical School of South Carolina where she trained under Drs. M. Edward Wilson and Richard Saunders.
• Laser Eye Surgery
  Myopia occurs when light coming into the eye focuses in front of the retina, rather than directly on it. This results in distance vision blur. The retina is the neural lining of the back of the eye, and acts like the film of a camera. If light does not focus directly onto the retina, the image will appear blurry. In axial myopia, the eye is longer than normal. In curvature myopia, the cornea or lens of the eye may be steeper than normal. A proper lens placed in front of the eye can refocus the image from in front of the retina to directly on it, thus making the vision clear. This is typically done with glasses or contact lenses. Reshaping the cornea to flatten it using laser surgery (Lasik) can also be effective, but this is not approved for children. Myopia is mostly genetically determined, although environmental factors, such as the amount of near work done, can also play a role.
• Cataracts
  A cataract is any clouding of the eye’s natural lens. The natural lens is normally clear, and lies behind the iris and the pupil. When we think of cataracts, we typically think of older adults, but it is a condition that can affect both infants and older children.
• Cataract Surgery
  Dr. Sun has co-authored articles in medical journals and has presented her research on complex pediatric cataract surgery at the national meeting of the
• Eye Exam
  A routine eye exam is done to evaluate the visual acuity, refractive error (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism), and overall health of the eye, in children over the age of 5. If covered, this routine exam falls under your child's vision/eyecare insurance benefit.

Endocrinologist

• Thyroid
  Those who developed strabismus as adults. In this group, strabismus is commonly caused by trauma or injury, stroke, brain tumors, cranial nerve palsies, thyroid disease, or eye surgery for other problems. In some patients, there is no identifiable cause. These patients may experience frequent or constant double vision.

Plastic Surgeons

• Botox
  Botox, or botulinum toxin A, is occasionally used in adult strabismus. Often incisional eye muscle surgery will have a more predictable and more permanent result than Botox.

Dermatologists

• Psoriasis
  Children with some systemic conditions like JIA (juvenile idiopathic arthritis), psoriasis, and Crohn's have an increased risk for developing uveitis in their eyes. Uveitis resulting from one of these conditions is called silent uveitis since the child does not really experience any issues early on. These children should be screened periodically to check for uveitis.
