- GlaucomaGlaucoma is actually a group of diseases that damage the optic nerve. The optic nerve is responsible for connecting the back of the eye (retina) to the brain. Glaucoma is usually caused by an increase in the fluid pressure in the eye – either because of overproduction of fluid or when the drainage system of the eye becomes blocked. The higher pressure inside the eye can cause damage to the optic nerve, resulting in permanent vision loss.
- OphthalmologyPediatric ophthalmology is a subspecialty of ophthalmology dealing with children’s eye diseases. When a baby is born their eyes are not completely capable of seeing and vision can be limited to around 20/1500. (the ability to see shapes but not features) The main reason for this lack of vision is due to the fact that their brains have not learned how to process the visual images it receives. Over time children will begin to detect extremely fine details. Sometimes visual development can be hindered by a variety of eye diseases or conditions.
- Macular DegenerationMacular degeneration is one of the leading causes of vision loss in the United States. It is a progressive disease that affects the macula, the center part of the retina (the back of the eye).

- CataractsGradual changes in vision can often go unnoticed if you do not have regular eye exams. As your eyes age, your vision may be suffering from cataracts, a clouding of your lens inside the eye. However, you may be compensating for these vision changes or simply think that you have to live with inferior vision as you grow older.

At Schein Ernst Mishra Eye we perform cataract surgery in our state-of-the-art surgery center located at our Harrisburg office to help patients restore their clear vision. Cataract surgery is considered a safe and effective procedure when performed by an experienced doctor.

- BlepharoplastyEyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a very popular and effective technique used to improve the appearance and function of your eyelids. Just like other areas of your body, your eyelid skin can lose elasticity as you grow older. This can cause sagging of the upper eyelids and bags under the eyes. Not only can this make you look older and tired, drooping eyelids can also interfere with your vision.
