  As surprising as it sounds, your eyes are the only part of the body where blood vessels and nerve tissue can be viewed directly without surgery. For this very reason, a comprehensive eye exam can potentially reveal telltale signs of illnesses and medical conditions that have originated elsewhere in the body. Eye exams can provide critical findings in the diagnosis of congenital syndromes & inherited disorders, primary cancers and metastases, cardiovascular disease, circulatory problems, blood disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases, endocrine disorders, or the side effects of certain drugs.

Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  Glaucoma is when damage occurs to the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain. Most often fluid builds up in the front of the eye, causing pressure that damages the optic nerve. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in people over 60 years old. Damage from glaucoma can be prevented if treated early.

• Cataract Surgery
  Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures in medicine, and it is one of the most successful surgeries. Most often, the cataract is removed by phacoemulsification in which a small instrument is used to soften and remove the cataract from the eye. The cataract is then replaced with an intraocular lens (IOL). There are many types of IOLs including monofocal, multifocal, near-vision enhancing, and astigmatism correcting. The goal of the IOL is to reduce the dependency on glasses or contacts for distance and/or near vision after cataract surgery.
